<br>E' stata data notizia di un pericolosissimo virus in rete per il quale non è stata ancora trovata la cura. Questa nuova infezione arriva con il classico allegato e-mail, con oggetto "A Virtual Card For You". Una volta aperta questa finta Virtual Card, il virus blocca immediatamente il pc costringendo l'utente a riavviare. Non appena viene premuta la sequenza Ctrl-ALT-Canc o viene resettato il computer, il virus distrugge il settore zero dell'harddisk. Questa la notizia ufficiale della Symantec.<p>
