Spanish police officers settling in for a video presentation on how to
get promoted to sergeant were instead shown footage from a hard-core
pornographic film, officials said Tuesday.

Howling laughter rippled through the auditorium where 120 Madrid city
police officers had gathered Monday to see the video on operations at
an academy where they are to study, the Madrid regional justice and
interior ministry said.

A ministry official said computer technicians have blamed the glitch on
a Trojan Horse computer virus that activated when the computer
containing the video was turned on.
