Virus writers take aim at .Net

Virus writers have apparently made the early developer list for Microsoft's
.Net initiative.
On Wednesday, antivirus companies received a copy of the first virus capable
of infecting files based on Microsoft's .Net Intermediate Language, or MSIL.

Known as W32.Donut, the virus does little but infect other .Net files, but
it shows that the programmers who create such code are looking ahead, said
Motoaki Yamamura, a virus researcher with security software company
Symantec.
