An anime themed worm?

The Zaku Worm?

It's not a major virus in any way. What's interesting about it is that it's so blatantly anime themed. Just thought it was interesting enough to share.

Headcrab a Worm, a Virus, and a Torjan are different things.

That is interesting. I'm surprised some virus/worm/trogan horse writer hadn't done something like this sooner.

What's interesting is that while the name is Gundam related, the content relates to Chobits...

Actually, the name is asssigned by the antivirus companies, and usually blatantly ignores or mocks any name included in the virus itself. So, the virus writer seems to want to call it "T_T CHOBITS," but whoever discovered it named it "ZAKU" for the official listing (maybe he was a Gundam fan?).
