Notes

Before July 21, 2016, using this gave:

Requires	1 Processor, 1 Energy
Use	You cast your net wide, looking for sites infected with OmniTech's rogue holiday marketing. The mess of signals leads you to <infected site>. Or, if there are no infected sites anywhere on the Net: The link leads to an abandoned, dead site. Hmmmm.

Having this equipped gave you two new sites when following data stream on an infected site.
Having this equipped when looking at your target list added "(Infected)" or "(Patched)" next to the access message to the relevant sites. Once you have installed the program, you will continue to receive this information even if it is not running, until you reset.
