A small number of video iPods have shipped with the Windows RavMonE.exe virus.

A couple of IMacs, an iPad, a bunch of iPhones...two of which don’t live here, but I still pay for. Oh yeah, wife, daughters, and yes—a grandson!

Hehehe...

I read it in a newspaper last night and was wondering why it would be harmful to have a windows virus on the iPods.
Then I realised that they also work on windows operating systems... lol doh.gif

If you look real closely, you'll see the word "conspiracy" embedded in the thread title on the Topics page. Really! I see it....
Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

I have a solution...

All those Windows users should go out and
BUY A MAC!

And dad said mine may have been affected
but i got a refurb photo instead of a video
(lucky call for me :-D)
This account isn't hacked...
I'm actually back from hiatus (and its about darn time too)!
