It is with great urgency that I type this message. I know how you hate
phones so I didn't bother trying to call. As strange as this may sound an
old enemy has returned.
We had all thought that with the "reorganization" and all that perhaps this

Unfortunately one of the bean counters down stairs managed to find an old
relic in the parts room. He put it online...somehow thought it would do as a
"cheap file server". What a dumb-ass. Long story short the damned thing has
run amuck. First it spread virii across our entire Intranet and then managed
to crash most of the machines on levels three through seven. Basically
rendering our system unusable. The database is trashed.....years of work is
gone. And yet something EVEN worse has happened. The beast has somehow
developed an AI. It's....sentient. I mean it PHYSICALLY moves. It's quite
UNHOLY.
WebHobbit, I implore you...you MUST help us. You must get your team back
together for one more mission. You must hunt down this hellish Packard Bell
and you MUST destroy it utterly.
Our internal IT department somehow managed to drive the little beast out of
our own building. It was seen crossing Highway 41 and rampaging down a trail
behind the levee. It shouldn't be hard to find as it is leaving an odd
"trail of errors" in it's wake.
Good luck WH and Godspeed!
