HP's Software Strangles Worms

This is a very cool idea. Basically if "Virus Throttle" suspects malicious code, it stops the computer from making connections and notifies the admin.

Sadly this is only available for certain HP products, but then again, the good news is that this is available for certain HP products. It will be intersting to see if this kind of thing is implemented for other systems. I suppose that depends on whether it is patented, what the license terms are, and all that other good legal IP stuff.
