It's Alive: Actual Worm Crashes Man's Computer
Experiencing computer problems, 45-year-old Englishman Mark Taylor recently received a message stating that the cooling fan on his machine wasn't working correctly. He took it to a computer technician, who took a look inside and discovered the problem -- a five-inch earthworm that had crawled in through one of the cooling vents and, ultimately, jammed the fan. Taylor suspects that one of his cats brought the worm into the house, and that, looking for a warm hiding place, the worm made its way into the laptop. In the end, all it found was its doom, meaning that this is one worm we don't have to worry about spreading. [From: The Telegraph]

I have to disagree...the fan probably spread that worm pretty well.
