Next generation spammer crap!

This morning I was minding my own business doing my thing when I went to do a search at Google and found that my computer had been infected by some crap-ware thing from a gallery I reviewed earlier. (sexiest-pic.com/0408) DO NOT GO THERE!

It installed a program that recognizes popular search engines and replaces them with their own page called motor-search.info. Don't go there either unless you want to uninstall their garbage form your puter.

The address bar stayed on http://google.com but the page was that other site! That's some pretty slick programming but I hope the author gets some jail time when the search engines file a class action suit against him!

So, in summary, add sexiest-pic.com to your blacklist and avoid the 2 hour hassle I experienced this morning trying to remove that garbage from my puter. And if you would like to share your blacklist I'm sure all of us could put it to good use.

I have noticed a few other urls that are changing IE6 homepages (which I thought had been fixed), so beware of the cheaters. They never seem to stop their crap.

GFY!

How do we protect the surfers form it?

After all, if they can't find our sites because of this stuff, they won't be able to whip out the plastic.

Surfers (and most webmasters) are morons, they will be infected by viruses and other shit till the end of time.
Just check the big viruses that go around, after the 10th big outbreak you would think surfers would stop opening attachments...no, it only gets worse. They have no clue.
