The 11-year-old laptop carries six potent malwares.

A malware ridden laptop is being auctioned in the name of art, and it could be yours if you can top the current bid of over US$1.2mil (RM5.04mil).

The laptop deliberately infected with six major malwares is an art collaboration between contemporary Internet artist Guo O Dong and cybersecurity company Deep Instinct, which provided the malware as well as the technical expertise for Guo to execute the work in a safe environment.
