The virus that goes around, comes back around

Creating a virus just for kicks isn't just a good way to get arrested. For Arnaldo's (soon-to-be-ex) friend, it's a surefire method of attracting more malware. Read all about it in this week's Spyware Horror Story.

Find out what went wrong, what went right, and what not to do in "Boomerang virus."
