Hackers don't stop at anything. After the passing of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett yesterday, malicious hackers are attacking with spam campaigns, phishing attacks and malicious code, according to U.S. Computer Emergency Response team. According to the advisory from US Cert, "These email messages may attempt to gain user information through phishing attacks or by recording email addresses if the user replies to the message. Additionally, email messages may contain malicious code or may contain a link to a seemingly legitimate website containing malicious code." It is recommended not to follow unsolicited web links in email messages and make sure all antivirus software is installed and up-to-date.
