Virus that makes Sounds?

[Daniel C. Di Vita]

We have a virus running around our office that seems to be the IMIServ
Trojan, however NAV is not catching it. There is a new one out the
AladinZ or something, but not sure if this is the culprit. Any ideas?

There is a new NetSky that is supposed to make PC speakers emit sounds
on February 26th, between six and eight o'clock in the morning - don't
ask me why.

Do you have a crystal ball? How you decided it is aladin?

I didn't decide it was or not. I was just asking. It was just weird
that users' pcs were making strange sounds. It was like watching an
old movie that portrays computers poorly.

Neat, well sort off, if that was the purpose, this variant is (almost) art.

I would probably have a different opinion if it were my machines beeping
around. Probably, not to sure that I can take any Windows machine, or user,
seriously anymore after the 'activation' nonsense I have had to put up with today.
