Embarrassing position

Google has admitted that three posts on the Google Video group blog on 
Tuesday evening were contaminated with the Kama Sutra (AKA Kapster-A) 
worm. The offending posts have now been deleted.

It's unclear how many subscribers to the 50,000 member list became 
infected as a result of the SNAFU. Google advises concerned subscribers 
to run an anti-virus check.
