ATMs running Windows XP robbed with infected USB sticks yes, most ATMs still run Windows

A high-tech criminal group in Europe has been infecting ATMs (cash machines) with malware, and then completely emptying the machines without a trace. The group has not yet been caught and the attacks continue -- and thus very few details have been released -- but we assume that they've already made off with millions of pounds/euros. The best bit: The hack is carried out by plugging an infected USB stick into ATMs that run Windows XP.
