Worm causes computer to crash

LMAO!


When Mark Taylor's computer crashed, he suspected he had a "worm" virus in the system, but was surprised to discover the problem was caused by an actual earthworm.



Quote:
The discovery was made by IT repairmen who found the 5in worm lodged inside the computer.
The creature had crawled into his £360 old laptop through an air vent and wrapped itself around the internal fan, leading to a total breakdown.
