As it turns out, Germany's Gundremmingen NPP has been found to be infected with remote-access trojans and file-stealing malware. Reuters reports that these included "W32.Ramnit" and "Conficker", which were found in a computer system that deals with data visualization related to equipment that moves nuclear fuel rods. At least 18 removable drives similar to USB sticks being used at the facility were also affected.
