Apparently it was Security firm Symantec that caught the code command, with the help of booby-trapped computers, also known as “honeypot” computers, showing Flame’s actions. The firm wrote on their blog that the flame virus ” tries to leave no traces of the infection behind.” Wouldn’t we love to know who the aster mind behind this is!
