Thus, according to Mr. Williams, the computer problems began in January 2010.<br />

Between the manufacturer and the rig, they could not get the bugs worked out of<br />

the new operating system. They couldn’t get the old software to run correctly on the<br />

new operating system. Microsoft Updates – instead of fixing the problem actually<br />

made the problems worse. This was an important clue that their computer system<br />

had been infected with the Flame super bug. Who would create such a vicious virus<br />

and why? I was not able to connect the Flame virus to the Stuxnet virus and the<br />

NSA until a shocking article was published in June 2012.<br />

June 1, 2012: James Risen, a reporter with the NEW York Times, interviewed one of the<br />

US generals associated with the Stuxnet project and posted an article where this general<br />

described the Stuxnet deployment against Iran in detail. If you are not familiar with the<br />

NSA Stuxnet attack on Iran then please read the following article.<br />

2010 to 2014: NSA greatly expands their cyber warfare arsenal.<br />

Stuxnet’s was not the only cyber weapon created by the NSA. The NSA also created<br />

Flame, Gauss and Duqu. Each of these has coding patterns related to previous programs<br />

including using many of the same modules, structures and processes. These severely<br />

dangerous and harmful programs are very complex. Below is a diagram of code modules<br />

in the Duqu Driver. This is only one of more than 100 components that make up the Duqu<br />

2.0 (2015) virus.<br />
