In this episode:
* The "Bundestrojaner" telephone interception software used in Germany comes under the spotlight for being a bit too malware-like.
* Sony lost data on another 100,000 users , down from 100 million or so last time.
* The Duqu malware is being touted as "Son of Stuxnet" , despite having more differences than similarities .
* OS X malware called Flashback has shown up , this time with anti-anti-virus capabilities.
* Microsoft's YouTube channel got hacked , but it's an open question whether anyone missed the videos whilst they were off the air.
