Stuxnet is a Windows-specific computer worm first discovered in June 2010 by VirusBlokAda, a security firm based in Belarus. It is the first discovered worm that spies on and reprograms industrial systems, the first to include a PLC rootkit, and the first to target critical industrial infrastructure.

Interesting share, thanks.
This is not very serious, make sure you do not have it on your computer. If you do, then run a virus scan and remove it, and help stop it from spreading.
Good Thing I have Ubuntu :3
First of all, Stuxnet is a worm. Not a virus. Yeah, I think it is identified as the first ever malware that can possible cause damage to real world machinery. It is said to infect machines that are made from Siemens and it is rumored that the possible target of the worm is a nuclear powerplant somewhere around the Middle East.
I saw this on the news, the media make it sound like the world will come to a stand still.
yeah my brother told me about this a few weeks back.........thanks for the link.been meaning to read about it
I read about this the other day, pretty impressive virus.
