New Trojan Makes Microsoft Windows Talk While Wiping out the Hard Drive

,----[ Quote ]
| This new malicious code detected by PandaLabs last week uses the Windows
| text reader to play the following sentences:
|
| "You have been infected I repeat you have been infected and your system
| files have been deleted. Sorry. Have a nice day and bye bye."
|
| These comments are repeated over and over again while the Trojan
| tries to delete the entire content of the computer's hard disk.
