Benr98 40 Posted August 7, 2008 More information at: http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/101495 "Thousands (possibly millions) of users are receiving what looks like an innocuous daily missive from CNN.com (it sailed right through my spam filter), offering links to the "Daily Top 10" stories and videos. Flag these emails as spam, and do not click the links inside. The links will direct you to a malware website and attempt to install dangerous software on your PC."

nonabelle 5 Posted August 7, 2008 well let me tell u i think it's from all those guest on line here getting email addresses. i have never got as much spam as i am now since i have been on this wonderful forum. and that's not paranoia, that's fact. all they r doing is lurking to get information on emails and links and such and using them to get paid.
