Dreamcast Game infected with Virus
« on: December 01, 2001, 01:44:17 PM »
Caught this over at Da Lan Tech.

\"A Japanese-language version of a Sega Dreamcast role-playing game has become infected with a computer virus.

The game, Atelier Marie, includes a screensaver which is infected with the highly damaging Kriz virus.

Although the Dreamcast itself is left unscathed by this, anyone loading the screensaver onto their PC from the game\'s CD-ROM will be in for an unpleasant surprise, when the virus activates on Christmas Day. \"

You can read the entire report at The Register.
