QUOTE A number of video iPods are infected with a virus, Apple said on its support site Wednesday. The RavMonE.exe virus, which affects only computers running Microsoft's (up $0.02 to $28.46, Charts) Windows operating system, is on less than one percent of video iPods shipped after Sept. 12. It is unknown exactly how many video iPods are affected. Apple's video iPod Apple's video iPod "So far we have seen less than 25 reports concerning this problem," the company said on its support site. Nice move Apple. -------------------- |

Well how the hell did the viruses get on there? It sounds as though the viruses were on the ipods when they shipped, which subsequently infected users' computers when they synched them.

The virus infected the windows computer and then went to the iPod. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM) Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!
