My firewall was taken down this weekend (hubby is moving computers around) and this morning I had about 10-12 virus e-mails. Hubby is as we speak muttering darkly while he is donning his flame proof suit, preparatory to slogging into the ether and fighting the hacker dragons (that's his job, you see, he protects our government sites from this crap).
This little gem is set up to grab keystrokes and so passwords and credit card numbers. I ain't buying anything over the net until my firewall is back up.
To amend a fandom saying "There is a special place in hell for hackers and spammers, and I can take you there."
