Subject: Virus on CP/M (does it exist?)

Does somebody know (or did anybody come across) a computer virus on
CP/M machines (I mean CP/M-2.* and CP/M-3.*)?  I do not think that
it is possible to have such a "program" that will go into the system
and not being noticed during the transfer of files and then run on its
own (without the user actually typing the program name or including it
in the .SUB files).  My claim is that such a program never existed
on those machines.  Can anyone support me on that?
