Click-jacking

Here is an article on the click-jacking I mentioned.  Patch Tuesday is coming up, and there are some patches; once again, apply them.  Be aware for now that there is nothing to do to absolutely guard against the hi-jacking of your browser, which is one of the reasons I’ve repeatedly recommended both Web of Trust and Haute Secure.

P.S.  Watch out for searches on Web of Trust, since they can lead directly to badware sites.  I’m using that (still) rather than malware, simply because ‘malware’ sounds a bit too dignified.  After all, the first exploits were simply spam with a tag or two…

When I refer to searches, specifically things like the Crawler search, which simply has been under-utilized.
