I know it's just a rehash of a press release, likely taken out of context from what was originally said, but - WTF?

If it's that easy, I'm gonna try it....

Did you consider the fact that the stuff that does all the hard work is actually .... software?! In other words, if some black hat makes a nice package with a decent installer and good documentation it could well be that it is less complicated to setup such a server then, say, setting up a decent webserver. The app in question would then do something like: 1: look for vulnerable pc's 2: infiltrate weak ones with preprogrammed stuff 3: send data back to simple integrated webserver 4: goto 1 The components at 2 could even fit into a nice plugin architecture to enable other black hats to extend the functionality. Yes, this stuff exists and yes, this stuff is easy to use.
