  A very detailed report on an early computer virus called the Morris Worm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_worm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_worm). It's actually extremely interesting; the fix even goes into editing assembly if the source of the affect program isn't available to recompile.

    It's also interesting to note that the worm's author went on to cofound YC.
