More urban myth.
But there is something out in cyberspace.
A while back ago, I was on AOL, I'm MacFinns@aol.com, went FTP surfing.
When I got off AOL, system was acting wierd, so I did a scan, traces of a 
virus were in RAM...and I didn't even run anything, just came into contact 
with. Nothing major mind you, just required a reboot, this time.
Charlie Daniels said it best, "there's thangs out thar in the middle them 
woods make a strong man die from fright...", gotta remember to check your 
systems folks, even if everything looks and acts fine.
