So much for acceptable use policies.
Someone brought a USB or floppy drive on board and just plugged her in.

It's probably not a concern since NASA is still running DOS 6.22 and Win
3.11 on the space station. ;)

Subject: NASA has a Virus?
(National) Computer virus hits ISS, should NASA worry? It was confirmed
yesterday by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) that
they discovered a computer virus that has the ability to steal passwords
on a laptop that is aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The
virus was first discovered by Symantec back on August 27, 2008, with the
virus being called W32.Gammima.AG. It impacts systems running Windows
2000, 95, 98, Me, NT, XP, and Windows Server 2003. At this point though,
it does not seem that there is much of a threat to NASA directly from
the virus. The report states that the virus is very easy to contain and
remove, and can cause minimal damage. Source:
