About.com nominates Quebec-based firm, DDesign, as Canadian Small Business of the Month DDesign, a personalized cartoon design company and producer of the Pet Computer Virusä has been nominated Canadian Small Business of the Month for August 2001 by About.com's Guide to Small Business: Canada. Heather Diodati, owner of DDesign, is the creator of the Pet Virusä offering comic relief from the many forms of viruses threatening computer users everywhere. "Lately there are so many headaches in the form of computer virus attacks," comments Ms. Diodati "that I felt computer users could use some help to recover with a little laughter after suffering from a computer virus." The Pet Virusä , also known as Virus Virtuelä in Quebec, is a furry creature packed in its own home with a care manual. "I have a Pet Virus sitting on top of my computer,"claims About Canada's Susan Ward "and every time I look at it I smile." It's a kind of stress ball with fur. "No virus? Here's your very own! If you're one of the few who hasn't yet been visited by the Sir Cam or Code Red virus, don't feel left out," says Gail Martin of About Canada's Halifax Guide, "a personal Pet Virus as been developed just for you."
