17 Oct 06 Small Number of Video iPods Shipped With Windows Virus
On digg.com
We recently discovered that a small number – less than 1% – of the Video iPods available for purchase after September 12 left our contract manufacturer carrying the Windows RavMonE.exe virus. This known virus affects only Windows computers, and up to date anti-virus software which is included with most Windows computers should detect and remove it
My favorite line in Apple’s article:
“As you might imagine, we are upset at Windows for not being more hardy against such viruses, and even more upset with ourselves for not catching it.”
Now was this a marketing trick or really an accident?
