Republicans infect voters with Storm Trojan
 

Make sure you desinfect your computers so someone don't get your poker pws. And no it is not the R party who put the trojan there.

Republicans infect voters with Storm Trojan

GOP smacked

From the Inquierer:
ANYONE WHO visited a US Republican website recently might like to scan their systems for the Storm Trojan.

According to PC World at least one Republican Party web site has been hacked and been spreading a variation of the long-running Storm Trojan horse.

Dan Hubbard, head of research at Websense, said that it was the first time that Storm has infected users via the web and not through files attached to e-mail or through links embedded in spam.

Users visiting hacked sites are instantly infected with the Trojan if their browsers are not patched against whatever exploit the IFRAME code is throwing out.

A Republican Party Web site for the 1st Congressional District of Wisconsin was hacked and delivered enough of the Trojans for Websense to detect it. The site has since been fixed.

Probably just something wrong with the tubes.

I don't get why they don't just say what site(s) were infected?

Someone should have told them the internet is not a big truck you can just dump stuff on.

Should This Title Be.....
 

Souldn't the title of your post be:
1. Republican website vandalized...
2. Democrat hackers vandalize Republican website and inflect thousands of computers with viruses.

The Republican Party was the victim yet your title implies they are the Repubs were the perp... You have a future at the New York Times or Washinton Post should you choose to.

You mean like that "bug" that Democrats planted in the office of Karl Rove that *oops!* turned out he planted himself to make it look like they were trying to spy on him right before an election (back in '86)?
