The iPod catches a bug on its 5th birthday

More

Happy birthday to Tunes, Happy birthday to Tunes, Happy birthday, dear iPod, Happy Birthday to Tunes ... The iPod celebrates its 5th birthday tomorrow and the king of the music player still dominates.

However, it was recently learned that "a small number" of Apple Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) Video iPods shipped after September 12th of this year contain a virus! It's the Windows Virus "RavMonE.exe." Apple claims that the infected iPods represents less than 1% shipped, and that they've only seen 25 reports of the problem. Still, a virus in an Apple product? Bad omen on this auspicious occasion.

If you have a video iPod that contains the virus, make sure you run your anti virus program on your computer and reformat your iPod.
