    Idiot Proof Keyloggers.... Great

    I thought this was interesting, the newest scams that this ring are using utilize software that is as simple to use as any basic office program, allowing pretty much anyone to break into thousands of machines.

    "The hacking software also features automated tools that allow the fraudsters to make minute adjustments or sweeping changes to their networks of hacked PCs. With the click of a mouse or a drag on a pull-down menu, users can add or delete files on infected computers.

    The site is currently the home base of a network of sites designed to break into computers through a security hole in Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser. The data thieves use the IE flaw to install programs known as "keyloggers" on computers that visit the specially coded Web pages. The keyloggers then copy the victims' stored passwords and computer keystrokes and upload that information to the database."
    Anyway I thought it was an interesting read. Here's the link if you're interested Detnews
