bumburumbi writes: An unauthorised computer, apparently running encrypted software, was found hidden inside an unoccupied office in the Icelandic Parliament, Althingi, connected to the internal network. According to the [url=http://www.grapevine.is/News/ReadArticle/Mysterious-Spy-Computer-In-Parliament-Works-Differently-Than-Being-Reported-Tech-Expert-Says]Reykjavik Grapevine[/url] serial numbers had been removed and no fingerprints were found. The office had been used by substitute MP's from the Independence Party and The Movement, the Parliamentary group of Birgitta Jonsdottir, whoseTwiiter account was recently subpeonad by US authorities. The Icelandic daily Morgunbladid, under the editorship of Mr David Oddsson, former Prime Minister and Central Bank chief, has suggested that this might be an operation run by Wikileaks.

The reporter for the Reykjavik Grapevine, Mr Paul Nikolov is a former substitute MP, having taken seat in Parliament in 2007 and 2008.
