look blizzzard introduced Zul'Gurub as a new instance inside this instance was a boss named Hakkar the Soulflayer He had a debuff that caused around 200 damage ever 2 seconds over 10 seconds. This wasnt a problem until hunter's pets left the instance while they were infected ! and the pets spread the infection

Guys, I'm Australian and if there's one thing I've learned from the TV here: The news is crap. Don't believe anything they say. Corrupted Blood is a virus? Come on ;)

First of all, a corrupted character couldn't affect the download. Second, GMs don't have that kind of power. Third, I think I would have heard a little more about that if it had happened; Warden has hit slashdot more than once and it is not even harmful. Hope you were being sarcastic.

I can only guess that they're (poorly) reporting on a recent Lancet article about the 2-day incident in 2005 where some players accidentally spread the "Corrupted Blood" plague throughout the major cities. In case anyone wants to read it: Lofgren, E and Fefferman, H. "The untapped potential of virtual game worlds to shed light on real world epidemics". The Lancet Infectious Diseases, Vol 7, Issue 9, Sept 2007, p.625-629.

WHO EVER DOESNT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT: Peoples characters (back at 60 days) became corrupted causing trojans to be downloaded straight to your computer from the blizzard patch downloader. This doesnt happen anymore but it only happened BECAUSE A BLIZZARD GM DID IT.

OMG you all phail! This has nothing to do with a computer virus...its talking about the lich king's virus...part of the game plot? You guys would know that if you listened to the video or got past level 10 in the game. They are comparing how the plague wipes out armies and civilizations and how it would happen in real life...
