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. \"
