Strain 2: Samson:
This Virus is not content with merely destorying the operatin system which it occupies. Rather, it wants to destroy all of the hardware that is controlled by the operating system, and does so fairly quickly, after only bothering to send out a few copies of itself. If a Strain 2 infected a starship, it would then crash itself into a star or a planet. If it infected the life-support system of a domed world, it would shut down the cooling system for the nuclear plant and cause a meltdown.
