Let’s Ban India!

Or at least the India Times

Visitors to IndiaTimes.com, a major English-language Indian news site, risk infecting their computers with a deluge of malware, according to Mary Landesman, senior security researcher at ScanSafe.

“It’s an entire cocktail of downloader Trojans and dropper Trojans,” Landesman said Friday, putting the number of malicious files involved at 434. This includes scripts, binaries, cookies, and images.

Landesman characterized the size of the malicious payload as unusually large. She also noted that the attack involved a large number of Web sites. Analyzing just two of the binaries, she said that ScanSafe had identified at least 18 different IP addresses involved in the attack.

And India has my little site, along with 17 others, on the official banned list? Technically, while the order is not being enforced, it was never rescinded.

  1. Love to Blackbeard but where would we get our $5 cups of ‘cafe latte expresso amaretto spice’ coffee at every morning?
    Loved Johnny Quest when little Hadji would sit on his magic carpet and yell “Singh singh sal a beem!” Then little dog Bandit would lift up his right rear leg… Race Bannon never dated either. Hmmmm?

  3. Ditto and Psalm 23:4 “…though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil…” and John 15:13 “…no greater love than a man lay down his life for a friend.” This is what the left-wing lunes simply don’t understand and it sucks to be them! Go NY Giants…Beat Dallas!!
