It usually arrives as an e-mail attachment with subject nivver shall the Divil get a rooten hond on ye! or Roon doon tuh Mockinsnare and smitten the fiery hoor! Some reports that this virus insinuates into text transmissions and can be contracted through chat forums has been repoorted, but nae confirmed. Norton has a virus-removal tool at www.explodingscotsmen.com. I have roon this and believe mah machine is coorently free of it.
