Virus infects Irish-built Dell computers

DUBLIN, Nov 18 (Reuters) - The Limerick factory of U.S.-based computer maker Dell Computer Corp (NasdaqNM:DELL
- news) had to shut down operations for two days after its production systems were infected with a computer virus.

Dell told Reuters on Thursday it had halted its manufacturing plant from last Thursday until Monday and recalled 12,000 units
after it discovered the so-called ``FunLove' virus in the system used to load software into desktop and laptop computers it
makes.

``We were back in production on Monday and everything is back to normal,' a Dell spokeswoman said.
