WullikB Virus Infects Creative Zen Neeon MP3 Players

by colbert low on September 4th, 2005

Creative Zen Neeon

Crazy world out there. There was a big outbreak of the Zotob worm awhile back and now we’ve got a Wullik.B outbreak on MP3 players. I’m gonna tell my wife to postpone her mp3 player buying plans for awhile, just until the dust settles on this.

Wullik.B, the virus, which runs on the Windows operating system, first appeared in early 2004, spreading by email.

According to the firm’s Japanese website, the problem has affected 5GB Creative Zen Neeon with serial numbers between 1230528000001 and 1230533001680. Wullik.B, which runs on the Windows operating system, first appeared in early 2004, spreading by email.

Several thousand Neeons are thought to be affected, according to reports. The problem, however, is only restricted to Asia-Pacific countries, as the Neeon is not available outside the region.

Infected Neeons, which have been on sale since May, will not be affected by the virus as the digital music players do not run on Windows itself.
