Losing a USB key on a train is all too easy, and a risky prospect if you keep important data on it. But if you find one, think twice before using it: one recent study suggests that it’s extremely likely to contain malicious software.
If you’re going to get your laptop stolen by anyone, better hope it’s by this Swede who copied the laptop’s data onto a USB stick and sent it to his victim in the post a week later.
It’s not pocket-sized, nor can it be lent to colleagues without experiencing a glimpse of fear it won’t be returned, but the Voltron Lionforce Defender 2GB USB stick does come pre-loaded with a remastered Voltron episode. Just $US30. [Incubot]
