Here's some text from Troika about Newton Virus:

--

Troika's 'Newton Virus' is finally released into the wild and ready for you to download!

'Newton Virus' introduces the magical concept of gravity to your desktop. It was named after the father of modern mechanics and causes the icons on your desktop to fall, roll and tumble in whatever direction gravity pulls them delivering a little bit of reality to your virtual environment.

But not to worry, the non-destructive virus will not replicate itself, mail itself to your friends or destroy any of your files, but instead provide you with moments of blissful surprise and magic. Perfect for spicing up your colleagues day or simply enjoying the marvels of Newtonian principles at work.

There are two downloads of the 'Newton Virus' that you can purchase on Troika's site. Newton Virus Install to USB allows you to download the virus directly onto your own USB key with which you can 'infect' any number of Macintosh laptops, and Newton Virus Screensaver that allows you to install the virus as a screensaver onto your computer.

In 2008 Troika's first Newton Virus became part of the permanent collection at MOMA New York.

Congratulations to the winners! Jolanta Lidwin in Poland, Nick Gentile in Australia, Rami Kopty in Israel, Nuno Henriques in Portugal and Paul Bart in Germany all won copies of Newton Virus by Troika.
