Researchers have found evidence suggesting the United States may have 
developed three previously unknown computer viruses for use in cyber 
warfare.

Anti-virus software makers Symantec of the US and Kaspersky Lab of 
Russia say about a dozen computers in Iran and Lebanon are infected. The 
researchers say the malware fits the profile of military operations.

The US has already been linked to the Stuxnet Trojan that attacked 
Iran's nuclear programme in 2010 and the Flame cyber surveillance tool 
that was uncovered in May.
