My friend Stavos was recently hit with the latest trojan horse that takes advantage of a flaw in Internet Explorer. Before we knew it was a trojan, it was quite the puzzle. Able to access any website except search engines, I blamed it on the mercury retrograde and went to bed. Before I sleep I always read the news on my PDA and the trojan was a top story. I have to applaud the guy who wrote this one. No real damage, but definately gets you confused. I'm glad PCWORLD had an article on it, otherwise I'd have been wondering about it all night. Since Stavos was compromised by this trojan, I have no choice but to label him a security risk and end all communications with him. Stavos, you were a good friend, and I'll miss you.
