A virus forces Iranian nuclear computers to blast AC/DC

Somewhere lurks a hacker with a fabulous sense of humor. Iran's Atomic Energy Organization is reportedly suffering from a hard-rocking cyberattack that forces the nuclear agency's computers to blast hardcore rock 'n' roll at full volume.

Finnish security company F-Secure received a complaint explaining that in addition to the \"worm\" shutting down various computer networks, \"There was also some music playing randomly on several of the workstations during the middle of the night with the volume maxed out.

I believe it was playing 'Thunderstruck' by AC/DC.\" The news may read like a farcical story from \"The Onion\" but, if true, opens the door to a new class of extremely amusing cyberwarfare. [Source]
