NASA finds nasty virus on space station

From The Great Beyond (a “Nature” blog):

Ok, the headline is a little misleading. But it’s still a bit worrying that NASA has found a computer virus on the space station.

Astronauts onboard the International Space Station are now running anti-virus software on their systems, following last week’s detection of an unwanted computer-guest.

According to Space.ref a ‘W32.Gammima.AG worm’ was detected on the ISS.
