For those of you poor bastards still running Windows, my friend Ted has a public service announcement for all of you:

Should you receive an e-mail directing you to the website at familypostcards2008 dot com delete it immediately and do not click on the link contained in the email. Following the link will direct you to a hostile malware related website.

Additional information can be found at the sites below...

• antirootkit.com
• siteadvisor.com
• securityzone.org

It would seem that the virus/spyware/trojan writers are getting pretty smart. Now they send you an email that links to the bad stuff since everyone knows not to open email attachments but somehow, if it comes from a website, it's more legit.

So yeah, don't go there... unless you're not using Windows. In that case, by all means, go and download the file a few hundred times and use up their bandwidth ;-)

That didn't take long. Some enterprising young hacker has come up with a way around Microsoft's key system to allow you to download and use a copy of Vista without paying for it.

Score one for script kiddies of the world I suppose. Though I guess the downside of this is that people will keep using Microsoft's crappy software rather than going to something that actually works.
