Today's Story Highlights

Microsoft Wields RICO Act to Storm Zeus-Infested Botnet Hives
Microsoft, together with partners from the financial services industry,
has hit the operators of a botnet running the Zeus Trojan. Escorted by
U.S. Marshals, staff of the companies seized command and control servers
in two hosting locations -- Scranton, Pa. and Lombard, Ill. -- and took
down two IP addresses related to the C&C structure.

RIM Aims to Reel In Devs With BB10 Preview
Research In Motion will soon give software developers prototype devices
that run an early version of the BlackBerry 10 platform. RIM is hosting
a BlackBerry 10 event in Orlando in May to coincide with its annual
BlackBerry World user conference. There, a limited number of developers
will have the chance to tinker with the product.

Iran Still Stuck With Stuxnet
Iran apparently has developed an antivirus program to neutralize the
notorious Stuxnet virus that put a kink in the country's nuclear
development program in June 2010. Iran has vowed to distribute the
antivirus program for free in about a month, according to Trend, a
publication that describes itself as a private media outlet in
Azerbaijan.

Meg Whitman vs. Tim Cook by the Numbers
Last week was an interesting week. Apple announced what appears to be a
penis iron in the new iPad, and folks are burning through their monthly
4G data plans in a few hours. Tim's having his first Antennagate moment,
and Steve Jobs he isn't. On the other hand, Meg Whitman announced her
first major restructuring since taking over HP. Whitman appears to have
Carly Fiorina's vision and can execute, which bodes well.

New Camera+ Packs Great Features but Still No Video
Somehow, some way, I've avoided using the amazingly popular Camera+
photo shooting and editing app. My only excuse? I'm pretty rigorous
about which apps I bother to download, play with and use. An apptrocious
phone packed with gobs of apps tends to annoy me, so I have a habit of
sticking with solid performers rather than clutter my mind with options.
