...is there any way of tracking where it got the virus from to try to discover where the other one is, if indeed there is another?

John, given The Machine's potential to cause havoc at inopportune moments when incorrectly programmed, do you really want to make contact with a similar entity, especially one which we have reason to believe is hostile?

Can't you figure out where it got the thing from without the other one finding out that you've found it?

When Freddie's had some proper duelling training or at least knows the basic rules, I should think. If I let him loose on Gove at the moment, he's more likely to physically attack the man than to duel with him.
