I think we're at much more risk from trojans (binaries from tainted sources), worms (programs that break-in and replicate - Stoll later realises that the virus above is actually a worm) and crackers.
True, but just because a binary is a trojan, does not mean it can't also be a virus and a worm. They're not mutually exclusive. So thus your "we're at much more risk" statement is not always going to be strictly true, as you could have a hybrid malware application.
