Emergency Patch for Internet Explorer
Microsoft has shipped an emergency Internet Explorer update
to counter an escalating wave of malware attacks. The out-of-band
update, which is rated critical, follows the public discovery of
password-stealing Trojans exploiting the bug on Chinese-language Web
sites. Over the past week, the attacks have expanded with hackers
planting exploits on legitimate Web sites. Make sure your Internet
Explorer is patched. Go to WindowsUpdate and install the ActiveX that
Microsoft puts on your machine to check for vulnerabilities. Then follow
instructions to update your Windows (free).

Google Sponsored Links Spreading Rogue
Anti-Virus Software
Malware hunters at Websense Security Labs have discovered
legitimate Google sponsored links being used to plant scareware programs
(rogue anti-virus applications) on the computers of Windows users. "In
the Labs, we keep a close eye on millions of Web sites each week. Last
week, our ThreatSeeker network became aware of a download site offering
the compression utility Winrar-one of the most popular and best-known
compression utilities - bound with malware. We thought that this scam
could present a good case study to show how the reputations of
legitimate and popular applications and online services are being abused
to serve and help malware authors to spread malicious software."
