What Best Buy called "a limited number" of the 10.4-in. digital frames sold under its in-house Insignia brand were "contaminated with a computer virus during the manufacturing process," according to a notice posted on the Insignia site last weekend. The frame which went by the part number NS-DPF10A has been discontinued, and all remaining inventory pulled, Best Buy added.

Nice.

That's reminicsent of the time my mate bought a 'legal' copy of something called 'Tom Rider' in Singapore once. It came with a free virus, a particularly nasty one that created a hidden partition on his drive with which to back itself up in.
