Bad Guys Use March Madness as Bait

Leave it to the dirty rotten scoundrels who take advantage of people with current events. In the USA, March Madness is going on and many of you fill out brackets in the office pools. Not knowing all the teams that have been selected, you end up researching on the Internet. Showing up in some of the top Google searches as well as ASK.com are some malicious sites. These booby trapped sites will attack your PC by running exploits against vulnerable applications like PDF, Excel, flash, etc.

The folks over at Websense have the details posted on their site that you need to check out. Just click here to read that story. Trust no one. Be careful what you click on. It may not be what it appears to be.
