FUPA virus

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article is not verifiable, and is possible a hoax. A PROD was removed without comment. A google web search for "FUPA virus" turns up only one result -- this article. Without quotes gets spurious hits but nothing about a computer virus. F-Secure, and Trend Micro have never heard of it. McAfee hasn't heard of it, and the closest match is nofupat which isn't notable and doesn't match the description given for this virus. Whpq (talk) 11:54, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. Could be speedy, as creator has now blanked the page twice, though the first appears to have been to remove the prod tag and other edits made by others requesting improvements, as the following edit by the same user restored an earlier version of the article. --Fugu Alienking (talk) 12:09, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - unsourced, the links go only to general virus information, nothing about this one. JohnCD (talk) 13:56, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Uhhh...delete Likely hoax. A short trip over to the urban dictionary with just the acronym FUPA will be instructive. Protonk (talk) 14:57, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
