"The recent infections may be accidental, but security experts say they point out an avenue of attack that could be exploited by hackers."

accidental?.....lol 

"The AP contacted some of the world's largest electronics manufacturers for details on how they guard against infections — among them Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., which is based in Taiwan and has an iPod factory in China; Singapore-based Flextronics International Ltd.; and Taiwan-based Quanta Computer Inc. and Asustek Computer Inc. All declined comment or did not respond."

Interesting, was there prior info relating to the above? I read the piece on Apples investigation into possible employee treatment discrepancies, however, I don't remember Hon Hai mentioned, owners of Foxcon/Pretec.
