Wikipedia Hosts The Blaster Virus

The German version on the popular Wikipedia provided a direct download link to a version of the Blaster virus. The download link was supposed to be a fix for the Blaster virus. Instead of the file being a fix, it was the actual virus. When users clicked on the link and installed the associated program, it actually infected their computers with the virus. All this happens just days after Vex published this article. I am starting to see that Wikipedia might be a dangerous place. Read this article to learn more about the virus and what it does.

    Yoursite looks like a lot of fun. If only more people could do what they really enjoy, the world would probably be a much nicer place!
