We all know about the ease with which worms are spread using removable storage / flash disks. There are even people who give away free USB flash disks containing some nice spyware.

Recently I was given an iPod Shuffle clone (Chinese look-alike) branded by a large company and used as promotional material. Since I have no need for such a gadget, I want to give it to the 13-year old son of good friends. Stuck it into the PC to test - lo and behold, Conficker worm "preinstalled". Be careful out there.  :p
