Some owners of brand new video iPods may be getting more than they bargained for with their trendy new purchase — a windows virus preloaded on the music player. Yes, now you have more than just RIAA lawsuits to worry about when you get into digital music. To be fair, the virus has only been included on less than 1% of iPods, and only 25 have been reported as infected. Only very new units have a chance of having the virus, those manufactured after Spetember 12th. If you're concerned that you might be one of the unlucky few, Apple has been kind enough to hand out free virus removal software on their website. Unsurprisingly, if you have a Mac you won't even notice if you have the virus, as it'll only infect Windows machines. Way to turn a negative into a positive, Apple.
