New Virus Poses as Berg video
According to the BBC, "A virus purporting to show video of Nick Berg alive has been released on the internet, warn security experts. The virus is in a message post to tens of thousands of newsgroups, said anti-virus firm Sophos.
"It is the same one that posed as a suicide note from Arnold Schwarzenegger and as images claiming to show that Osama Bin Laden had killed himself. Computer owners are advised to ensure their anti-virus software is up-to-date and avoid opening unknown messages."
(Berg was beheaded in Iraq.)
