#2 I can imagine Stuxnet working once. But after a shutdown and systems purge, and checking the reactor systems, and cutting off Bushehr from any external computers that might be affected, their system will be clean. Unless there is a trusted person on site who reinfects.

#3 It is the processing fuel rods etc that was permanently damaged as well as mis-matched equipment. This virus was the most brilliant form of defense against Iran's nuclear program.

I know, phil, but we don't want to give away the guy ~~smuggling~~ carrying that flashdrive back into the facility.

#8 I thought it hid out in the operating system and was "impossible" to remove. After all, it was developed by the Joooooooos.

Besides, that way the Mad Mullahs can use it as an excuse 50 years from now...
