Witty (computer Worm)
The Witty worm was a computer worm that attacked the firewall and other computer security products written by a particular company, the Internet Security Systems (ISS) now IBM Internet Security Systems. It was the first worm to take advantage of vulnerabilities in the very pieces of software designed to enhance network security, and carried a destructive payload, unlike previous worms. It is so named because the phrase "(^.^) insert witty message here (^.^)" appears in the worm's payload. The Witty worm incident was unique in that the worm spread very rapidly after announcement of the ISS vulnerability (a day later), and infected a much smaller and presumably harder-to-infect (because the administrators had taken security measures) host population than previous worms. Propagation On March 19, 2004, the 'Witty' worm began infecting hosts connected to the Internet (and running the vulnerable ISS software) without any seed population. Within a half-hour it infected 12,000 computers ...

Wit (other)
Wit is a form of intelligent humour—the ability to say or write things that are clever and typically funny. Someone witty, also known as a wit, is a person skilled at wit, making spontaneous one-line or single-phrase jokes. Forms of wit include the quip, repartee, and wisecrack.

A ''quip'' is an observation or saying that has some wit but perhaps descends into sarcasm, or otherwise is short of a point. A ''witticism'' also suggests the diminutive. ''Repartee'' is the wit of the quick answer and capping comment: the snappy comeback and neat retort. Metaphysical poetry as a style was prevalent in the time of English playwright William Shakespeare, who admonished pretension with the phrase "Better a witty fo ...
