Now this is interesting: the Amus worm will verbally taunt the user using Windows XP’s speech-generating features. F-Secure has posted a .wav, and McAfee’s writeup has an MP3.
Oddly, Symantec’s entry says nothing about the speech. Maybe they don’t have speakers on their test boxes.
Now if they made an alternate version with “My name is mister hamster,” it’d be downright frightening. As it is, it looks like just another type of fishy work…..
Am I alone in finding that a little frightening?
