That does not look like a very sophisticated virus. It requires user interaction. It is apparently using a CNC, and a single server at that. How elaborate does a virus need to be to spread from host to the virtual machine? Not at all. Spreading from internet to virtual machine? Not at all. Surviving through reboots, wowwie that is pretty impressive. The US gov can do shit that makes this look like childs play, and honestly it is not particularly impressive at all.
