Last week Best Buy stores pulled a $230 Insignia 10.4-inch photo frame from shelves.
Why?
It shipped from the manufacturer with a Trojan virus.
The virus will only effect Windows computers and only if the photo frame is connected to a PC via a USB cable. Apparently its not a recent virus, so up-to-date anti-virus applications should be able to handle it. What the actual name of the virus is has not been released, so I can’t confirm its age or what exactly it would do to a computer if infected with it.
The model has been discontinued and if you have it (SKU 8483866) you’re asked to contact Geek Squad for assistance.
