      Special note for Israeli users: If the malware determines that your location is Israel (it does this via locale and timezone checks) then it has a 1:6 chance that it will play a loud siren sound and run rm -rf /

      OK thats kind of funny though

        Some folks theorize Illusive Networks is responsible for the malware.
