I do hope that the person(s) responsible for this virus are caught and severly prosecuted - whoever they are. Not all MP3 files are illegal. I, for instance, am a songwriter/musician who both records and stores my music in various formats on my system. If anything should happen to my collection as a result of this criminals' action I will be very angry indeed.
