"Information-Warfare Defense Is Urged"

   The Defense Science Board said the Pentagon should 
   launch counterattacks against computer hackers by 
   injecting the attackers'  computers with "a polymorphic 
   virus that wipes out the system, takes it down for weeks."

   The report largely sidesteps as irrelevant the continuing 
   controversy about the export of encryption codes.
