Ciao, tesoros!
Some of you may have seen some unusual activity happening in the City recently. I am happy to report that the situation is now under control.
Some background for you: We have a special liaison program named DifferenceEngine. Or, rather, we had... you see, his particular code structure was designed specifically for interfacing with humans. Apparently it left him rather... vulnerable to certain unwanted elements. A virus.
The nature of the virus is not terribly important. His behavior became quite erratic; he issued vague threats against Zion and the Matrix, and claimed to have some sort of power at his disposal.
An emergency meeting of Machine operatives was called. While the meeting was in progress, reports began to come in; reports of further troubling behavior. DifferenceEngine was tracked to Debir Court and surrounded by operatives, when a new aspect of his condition presented itself.
Very dangerous programs began to appear in the area, indiscriminately targeting those present... I suppose eyewitness accounts would suffice to describe the unfortunate scene.
Rest assured that the area was pacified, and DifferenceEngine has been taken into custody.

His code shall be cleansed. If complete repair is not possible, he will be returned to the Source.
In the process of stopping DifferenceEngine, a certain human proved to be a valuable asset. He goes by the name Turring, and his expertise in artificial intelligence was essential to the malfunctioning program's capture. Syntax Machine operatives, please direct all future communication through Turring. His intelligence, loyalty, and... stability... are all valuable assets to us.
Remain vigilant, my tesoros. And be well.
