FIGHT TO THE FINNISH -- BANK CLOSES TO STYMIE SASSER
Sasser isn't exactly a "disasser" just yet, but one of Finland's
foremost financial firms took no chances. Sampo, the third largest
bank in Finland, closed all 130 of its branch offices Monday just to
make sure its systems didn't get "sassed." A Sampo spokesman said
that the company had not updated its virus protection and decided it
was safer to close shop for the day while IT did its thing.
