Apparently, one of the computers at V26 is infected with a trojan/worm that spreads through thumb drives. It loads itself into your thumb drive and set itself to autorun whenever your thumb drive is inserted into another PC, infecting it. It seems to be Trojan-Downloader.Win32.VB.auk.

It was lucky Vista had that autoplay dialog box asking if you want to autorun anything. Otherwise I might have gotten infected. Cleared them out and all’s clean.

In other news, while we were trying to distribute some papers to the pigeon-holes of various teachers, we just couldn’t find a certain teacher’s pigeon-hole. And guess what, the teacher’s name was hidden behind some envelope he placed over his pigeon-hole. How elusive.
