Yanked off slashdot.  Apparently the supplemental software that comes with
the video is infected with FunLove.  Users who decide to install it on
their PC will then also infect themselves.

I wonder if anyone will ever develop a continually mutating virus that
will be unstoppable by current anti-virus software?  From what i
understand, most virus software looks at files, and checks for a specific
sequence of bytes that represent the 'signature' of the virus.  how hard
would it be to build a virus that recompiles itself, changing it's
signature?

very hard maybe.
