Haha, and the funny thing is the antivirus on the system did not detect it. The virus itself is 13 years old!

A consignment of laptops from German manufacturer Medion, sold through German and Danish branches of giant retail chain Aldi, have been found to be infected with the boot sector virus 'Stoned.Angelina', first seen as long ago as 1994 and last included on the official WildList in 2001. http://www.virusbtn.com/news/2007/09_14.xml
