The Government has fallen victim of the bug already, but not in the way it had anticipated. It has been conned by one of the very people it has hired to protect it from Y2K woes. A civil servant recruited to ensure that Government computers ran smoothly over the new year hired his own company, set up under a false name, to put in bug-beating software fixes. And as if this wasn't bad enough, the software was pirated from the internet. The man responsible has now been jailed.
