I was shocked to see a television series mention linux, even more so for it to be Ubuntu. "The Big Bang Theory starring a group of four friends, all of whom have unusual habits has been a hit with the student and the geek culture." Sheldon Cooper's favorite linux distro is Ubuntu.

A detection update from McAfee (DAT 5958) falsely labelled the svchost.exe as the Wecorl-A virus, sending a core Windows system file into quarantine in the process. Infected computers became inoperable and went into a continuous reboot cycle. Reported victims include Kansas City Police Department and and the University of Kansas Hospital and about a third of the hospitals in Rhode Island. PCs also went haywire at Intel. Personally, I think it was correct.
