New iPods could be infected with a Windows virus
Going out to a store, and dropping up to $350 on a fresh new Apple iPod Video is supposed to be a happy moment. But what do you do when you discover that that precious iPod is carrying something deadly?Apple has discovered that a small number of Video iPods that were available for purchase after September 12th 2006 could contain a virus. The virus called Windows RavMonE.exe only affects Windows computers. Only Video iPods are affected by this virus, and Apple has only had 25 reports to date. The good news is that any up to date anti-virus software will be able to remove it. Apple has also nicely provided a list of things to do to remove the virus.
