There is a wicked new piece of malware right now that directs those infected to the girlsforgames.com site and to a site to buy a spyware remover. It also give false windows security alerts and seems to send a log of sites visited to the perpetrator.

I was upset to find that one of my patched up SP2 XP machines had picked this up last night. I had thought SP2 was supposed to prevent this sort of thing.
