A curious piece of malware called W32/Induc is designed to infect applications written using Delphi (a variant of the Pascal language originally developed by Borland, and now used to quickly develop Windows programs such as database applications). The virus inserts itself into the source code of any Delphi program it finds on an infected computer, and then compiles itself into a finished executable. Find out more about why we're seeing lots of reports of this virus, and how it has been discovered on a magazine's free CD ROM. You can even listen to a podcast and learn more straight from the malware experts at Sophos.
