M$ blamed for Apple iPod virus
Buck passed here
APPLE IS trying to pin the appearance of a virus which has shown up on its video iPods on its rival Microsoft.
According to Bizjournals, Apple has found a small number of its Video iPod devices sold after September 12 carried a virus called RavMonE.exe, that affects computers running Microsoft's Windows.
According to a FAQ on a technical support page the appearance of the virus is all Redmond's fault because Windows was not tough enough to prevent such viruses. Although Apple says that it is more upset with itself for not checking its products for viruses before they shipped, it seems to think that it is a Windows fault rather than a quality control problem. Of course Apples are not vulnerable to viruses, because they run on OSX, so one has to wonder what a Video iPod is doing running Windows in the first place.
