U.S. computer security researchers say the Flame computer virus has gotten orders to vanish. The 20-megabyte piece of malware already had a self-destruct module known as SUICIDE that removed all files and folders associated with Flame. Flame was designed to suck information from computer networks and relay what it learned back to those controlling the virus. It can record keystrokes, capture screen images, and eavesdrop using microphones built into computers built into the networks of infected computers. The virus struck at least 600 specific computer systems in Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and the Palestinian Authority.
