lightning fast spreading of the e-mail worm ILOVEYOU as an opportunity to warn
of splitting up the company. "Updates for Windows- and Office-software, e.g.
to protect of attacks like the 'Love Bug', would be much harder to get for the
computer user", Gates wrote in an article for the latest issue of the US news
magazine Time."
