The year I'm lookin for are on that link.
Remember I was asking when the Word was First used as
intended today.

The year was when the Word was mentioned as a Worm Virus
and gained national attention for some 6,ooo computer users.
I doubt it is possbile to establish the number of users,currently.

A gazillion, for sure.

And over half of them are either viewing or posting links to porn.

Porn ! Schmorn !

Would you care to take a stab at the Year.

It wasn't ALL that long ago.

I'm looking for THE year,the word INTERNET was used as it
currently IS.Not the first time it was ever uttered.
Posters utter hears,and dat don't mean "Nuthin."
I mean... "Squat".

1969 "internet" invented (not called by that name)

First true "worm" virus December 1987 - "Christmas Tree" infested the BITNET system at IBM.

First INTERNET worm virus November 2, 1988 - "Morris Worm" attacked Unix VAC systems in mainly University systems.

I assume this is the worm and "internet-term" usage that you are refering to?
