Daily Tech: McDonald's Japan and Coca Cola announced a contest in which flash MP3 players were awarded to contestants who submitted a unique winning number on a Coca Cola cup order at McDonalds. Ten thousand winners received the McDonald's-branded MP3 player preloaded with 10 songs and spyware that reportedly began to transfer username and passwords once it was connected to a Windows PC.
 
Several reports claim that the spyware would take control simply by plugging the MP3 player into a Windows PC. Other reports, however, dispute whether that is how the spyware works.
