Google accidentally transmitted a virus on their Google Videos mailing list with W32/Kapser.A@mm. Atleast 3 emails containing this virus have been posted on the mailing list which approximately has about 50,000 subscribers.
Google is brushing up saying: If you think you have downloaded this virus from the group or an email message, we recommend you run your antivirus program to remove it
W32/Kapser.A@mm is a mass mailing virus and is designed to delete selected files on specific date. This virus first made its public appearance on 16 January 2006 and spreads through e-mail attachments designed to entice users to open the attachments and thereby execute the worm.
All of us are exposed to such potential threats. I use Clamwin to defend myself. What do you use ?

It seems that Google is having more problems every single day, right? Disappointing.

Things are really getting me a bit worried. Some of the things I heard over at the Google Adsense Groups and now this particular news, makes me get the feel that Google is going against their ‘Do no Evil’ policy by invovling in ‘heavy handed tactics’.

Agreed Vyoma, Google is definitely breaking their Don’t be Evil motto with its recent happenings.

agreed, this is negligent, but accidents happen. since when are accidents and negligence the same thing as being evil?

Negligence alone does not contend for being called evil. The term is more often used when they consistently use ‘heavy handed’ approach in many cases - when they use their power of being the huge corporation - that is the point.
