This is being touted as being an iPad virus. It's no such thing, it's
a Windows trojan requiring following/downloading/installing from an
email, but the email refers to an iPad so the windowlickers are
already gurgling about it.

Perfectly comprehensible origin:

Sigh. Still, a least the commmenters on tgdaily have brain cells.
