I just saw a note on comp.risks about viruses in China.

>     Ministry of Public Safety of People's Republic of China found this
>summer that one tenth of the computers in China had been contaminated by
>three types of computer virus:  "Small Ball", "Marijuana" and "Shell", China
>Daily reported.

The "Small Ball" is probably just a variant of Ping-Pong, "Marijuana" is
the same virus as "Stoned" or "New Zealand", but what is "Shell" ??

Anybody got an idea ?
