Windows linked to the severity of the Blackout !
According to computerworld,
http://www.computerworld.com/securit...?SKC=home84510
The Blaster Worm that was made possible because of the holes in Windows security system contributed to the Blackout !

"The inability of critical control data to be exchanged quickly across the grid could have hampered the operators' ability to prevent the cascading effect of the blackout..."
