Hi :)
QuoteSophos, a world leader in IT security and control, has discovered a worm which spreads by copying itself onto removable drives such as USB flash drives, in an attempt to spread information about AIDS and HIV.
The W32/LiarVB-A worm hunts for removable drives such as floppy disks and USB memory sticks (as well as spreading via network shares), and then creates a hidden file called autorun.inf to ensure a copy of the worm is run the next time it is connected to a Windows PC. Once it has infected a system it drops an HTML file containing a message about AIDS and HIV to the user's drive.

What a twist! :blink: Sheesh
Quote"Even though the hacker responsible for this worm wasn't set on filling his pockets with cash, and may have felt that he was spreading an important message, they are still breaking the law. In the future we might see more graffiti-style malware being written on behalf of political, religious and other groups looking for a soapbox to broadcast their opinions."
