Reports surfaced today that a new virus is slowly spreading throughout the Mac community. The first infections appeared 
a few days after HYPERLINK "http://www.macworldexpo.com/"Macworld Expo in January 2008 and were initially centered in 
the San Francisco and Cupertino areas, but soon spread throughout California, with additional hotspots in major 
metropolitan areas throughout North America and Europe. The virus continues to spread slowly and efforts to eradicate 
it have been unsuccessful. Although Mac users usually have a relatively lower risk of viruses than their Windows 
brethren, experts believe this infection is isolated to the Mac community, and it is not expected to transition to the 
broader computing world.
