While scanning the news feeds this morning, I came across a dangerous one.
http://www.stop-sign.com/se/se062.php?n=s_gg_anti_attack&kw=gg_anti_attack_3_182_ct_trojan%20horse%20anti%20virus&pg=%26se_spin&ver=online
This looks like a legitimate commercial venture, but from personal experience I
can tell you the products distributed under this name in the past are loaded
with spyware. It may be that advertising it through a news feed is an attempt
to add legitimacy to their activities. The moral of this is:Be very careful
about what you read.
