Cameroon the New Hotbed of Malware

Posted by samzenpus on from the none-more-infected dept.

garg0yle writes "According to McAfee, more than a third of Cameroon domains (TLD of .cm) are infested with viruses or other not-so-fun party treats. Given that it's very easy to mis-type .com as .cm, this puts the computers of a lot of fat-fingered typists in peril. Second place on the most-infested domains list goes to China (.cn), while Hong Kong (last year's 'winner') is now comfortably middle-of-the-pack."

      why don't we just send all the niggers back to Africa. when crime is reduced to near-zero as a result, we can focus our efforts on eradicating malware! of course the lobbyists who profit from private prisons won't benefit from all the niggers going back to Africa, so maybe they will go to Africa too!

    Disabling the messenger service will get rid of ONE of Microsoft's Security holes, but there are plenty more which attract 114,000 virii. So, to get RID of malware, just get rid of Microsoft and install a good open source software such as www.kubuntu.org instead. ultimate acai max
