McDonalds McMalWare
McDonalds had McEgg all over its McFace when it was discovered people who ate at the company's outlets in Japan risked a Big Mac Infection.
MP3 players the company was offering as prizes as part of a joint Coca-Cola promo, "were loaded with a particularly nasty strain of malware," says The Register.
Users who connected their McDonalds MP3 players to their Windows PCs, "were exposed to spyware code programmed to transmit their web passwords and other sensitive information to hackers," says the story.
The players were preloaded with QQpass, which transmits usernames, passwords, etc. off your computer," explains Gizmodo, from whence came the pic.
