On December 24. several PCs here in Iceland refused to run any programs, displaying the message "Gledileg Jol" instead. On Dec. 25th everything was back to normal. This seems to be a new .EXE infecting virus of Icelandic origin, possibly a variant of the Icelandic-1 virus. A full description will be posted as soon as I receive a sample. - -frisk
