Sony recalls CDs that open door to viruses

[javasaurus]

Sony has been including a bit of software on their recent CDs, so that if you play them on your computer, the CD installs a bit of programming that keeps you from copying the CD. However, the Sony software also created a serious security hole that recent viruses have been exploiting.

Because of this, Sony has recalled all CDs with this bit of code. Here is an article about it for your enjoyment.
