4. 0-day in the kernel's USB code. Your computer crashes. You're not part of stuxnet. You also get a message that tells you how and where to report the bug that was exploited, but the part of your computer that was supposed to log the message died with the rest of the system, so you never see it and the bug never actually gets reported. Your computer continues to crash randomly for the next few days as an infected computer keeps trying to spread.
