The Flame virus has security researchers engaged big-time.

There is a virus named Flame Virus that can delete files from a computer.  One thing you can be certain of, this Flame virus is more complicated than any of us know.  The Flame virus is capable of activating computer microphones, allowing ne'er-do-wells to listen in on conversations.  The duty of flame virus is to steal data from a computer and to capture information.  The notorious Flame virus has damaged government computer systems and exposed sensitive information throughout various countries in the Middle East.

Iran's government-run Computer Emergency Response Team Coordination Center has said the Flame virus was focused on espionage.  While we're hoping that Flame virus isn't listening in on us, we'd like to hear your thoughts.  Now that Flame virus is out in the open, Iran is taking serious defensive measures.  Therefore, the conclusion to be made is that the Flame Virus is also a US product.  The Flame Virus is a powerful cyber weapon that may have been inside Iranian computers since 2010, or even before.

The reason the Flame virus is so dangerous lies in its various data-collecting methods.  The only  removal tool  that I could find in English for the Flame virus is by BitDefender.  The Flame virus was identified only recently by the Kaspersky Labs.  It may spread via USB sticks and across insecure networks like Dugu.  Thus American involvement in the making and distribution of the Flame virus cannot be ruled out.
