Bin Laden's Death Being Used To Spread Malware
wiredmikey writes "Following the successful operation by US forces to kill Osama bin Laden, Internet users are searching in the masses for any details about the incident they can find. Cyber-criminals know this and have already been at work to 'poison' common search results hoping to gain access to people's computers and infect them with malware."
So far all the posts, including mine, are really spammy. I think that tells us just how much anybody really cares that the US finally caught their scapegoat for all the world's ills.
So Afghanistan was a complete waste of time, then, since (supposedly) they were only there looking for him.

And as long as people like you continue to fall for it, they'll carry on doing it. Remember, kids, hyperlinks are dangerous! The "Run" dialog box can give your computer measles!

Everything is used to spread malware. So Osama rates up there with child porn, penis enlargment, hair loss, belly fat, viagra, cheap drugs, and people wishing to deposit millions of dollars into your bank account?

If you're not confused, you're not paying attention
Well, it's either that, or another iPhone or Google ad.. take your pick
For justice, we must go to Don Corleone
'Was searching for Bin Laden news, found a program called "Fox Tab" in the search results, and discovered this PDF creation tool was actually a trojan.'
Even worse, I was searching for 'MILF' and I got a legitimate news story about Bin Laden:

("...He added that bin Laden's death has no direct effect on the MILF.")
Be careful out there!
I swear I read this same article every time: "[Insert world event here] being used to spread malware"
-1000 Redundant. Yep, we've actually had this discussion. And, surprise!, I am actually female. I'm ugly, I'm wierd, and I post crap sometimes, but I am female.

You can tell this one is a real woman, look how much she talks but how little she says.
If I can just reach out with my words and touch a butthole, just one, it will all be worth it.
I'm ugly, I'm wierd, and I post crap
+1 informative.
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? - Pink Floyd.
And I thought Bin Laden had karma issues...

Bin Laden wouldn't have said anything, he was a tough nut to crack.
Talking to the guy would have invited negotiation with him. Then millions in court costs as he's stuck in a jail somewhere. Following that would be the attempts at freeing him.
Fuck him, he's gone and the world's a better place.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Trolling is a art,
Maybe because of MILF
"The agriculture ministry is not in charge of Gundam" - Japanese ministry official.
Let us at least agree that Osama died as he lived: violently and without mercy.
Score: +4 (troll) was the most amusing. Still got karma to burn. Wish I knew who went after me, though. Revenge is sweet (unless your name is Osama).
Hey..! Well played, though...
