    Hey folks,
    
     Just thought that I'd drop a quick message on here, especially
    considering the increased traffic we've been seeing over the past few
    days.
    
     I'd just like to say that TAO Communications is a service carrier for
    facilitating the communications and organization of individuals and groups
    throughout the globe. TAO Communications, as a technical body of
    individuals, are sympathetic with the security conscious sys-admins of the
    world and fully support the open source movement.
    
     The page in question on the wrench site, as far as we're concerned, is
    purely satirical in nature and does not take credit for the creation
    and/or distribution of the Code Red IIS worm.
    
     TAO Communications would never condone, or support, the release of a worm
    or virus that would affect the Internet community.
    
    
     Best Regards,
    
    - Joshua Hirsh
    (A member of the TAO Communications Systems Administration collective)
