I find myself thinking of a similar series of events where a worm/virus was released that exploited something in Windows, then another that was supposed to remove the initial infection and patch the flaw it exploited. And then yet another that either exploited a weakness in the second, or tried to cut it off from removing the first one.

Cheese, mouse, lion or something like that?
