I've just read a report on something really groundbreaking!
A group of elite scientists from all over Europe have set up a meeting of the highest tier to discuss the facts of an 8-month study to find a connection between computer viruses and people. World Health Organisation delegates are also a part of the meeting, as the organisation fears a possible epidemic, and, judging by the spread of computers over the world, even a pandemic. Virologists, dermatologists, microbiologists and certified IT technicians have conducted several tests that yielded unbelieveale results. A computer virus known as LIR.PA1, has been found in the bloodstream of several test subjects. "The answer is obvious - the computers infected them!" the project leader Jesamvas told the press.
The registered symptoms are irritableness, itching in the typing fingers, dizzyness and one of the subjects even claims to see binary numbers. The virus is transmitted over a 12-minute period of undisturbed contact with the computer, either by looking at the screen, or by working on the computer. If you experience any of these symptoms, and have been in contact with a computer within the last 1 hour, bathe in a soda-enriched water, avoid human contact and call the doctor to check you up.

Just installed Antivir in the ol' memory, so I'm safe.
