Creative Zen Hit by Virus

Wullik.B, the virus, which runs on the Windows operating system, first appeared in early 2004, spreading by email.

According to the firm’s Japanese website, the problem has affected 5GB Creative Zen Neeon with serial numbers between 1230528000001 and 1230533001680. Wullik.B, which runs on the Windows operating system, first appeared in early 2004, spreading by email.

Several thousand Neeons are thought to be affected, according to reports. The problem, however, is only restricted to Asia-Pacific countries, as the Neeon is not available outside the region.

Infected Neeons, which have been on sale since May, will not be affected by the virus as the digital music players do not run on Windows itself.

Those virus maker just never stops, now we have virus on handphones, mp3 player, computer, pocket pc and I guess car gps will be next.
