[ga] 80,000+ Websites Serving Drive-by Malware Attacks

["Jeffrey A. Williams" <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

  Seems that still ICANN's accredited registries and registrars
have not taken security of users seriously still...  It further seems
that additionally DHS has not taken sufficient action to ensure
the publics safty and security.  One has to wonder why and when
they will...

See:
(October 3, 2008)
More than 80,000 websites have been "modified with malicious content"
that serves exploit code to unpatched PCs of site visitors.  A server
containing administrative login credentials for more than 200,000
websites has been found, although not all the sites are known to be
infected with the malware.  The infected sites include universities,
Fortune 500 companies, government systems, and the US Postal Service.
