Sony Rootkit Strikes Again?

From AVS
Quote:
It was reported on Reuters that high-end memory sticks sold by Sony Corp can make personal computers vulnerable to attack by computer hackers, according to researchers with two Internet security firms. It's the attack of the Sony rootkit... part two... or is it part 3?
Now when will Sony learn that putting unauthorized code on your machine is a bad idea?

Not sure what this has to do with HD, but yeah, there was a bunch of crap on the last Sony memory stick I bought that tried to stick stuff on my computer. Fortunately I have so much anti-everything software on my machine that nothing gets through and it alerted me to it.
