490.0. "ITALIA to PADANIA Word virus (?)" by ROMEDU::NEBBIA (Mario Nebbia @RIO - Rome, Italy) Wed Mar 19 1997 02:35

The Italian TV mentioned a Microsoft Word virus that should automatically
substitute the word "Italia" with the word "Padania", and (according to
the TV speaker) is going to be propagated via Internet.

Is it a real virus, a joke or what else?

Regards

Mario
