Please note that those days there are two massively used attacks that could hit you as well:

President Obama Malware:

The email offers news of Barack Obama‘s speech and a recording after he won the elections.

If you click on the link it will say you need to install the latest version of Adobe Flash player.

The link actually takes you to a malicious Web site.

Although the file there is called ‘adobe_flash.exe’, it contains a trojan program that will take control

of your PC.

Facebook Confirmation Malicious mail:

This attack could trick you into believing that the message is a Facebook friend-add confirmation.

The “From” address in the message is set so that it looks like it is from Facebook.

Once you click on the link it will start the infection process.

To defend your self of both those attacks, you can use the same tips I shared on my Video on protectingyour Pay Pal account here:

As said in past messages I am working on several projects online that will help you out, one of them

is a How-To video showing how to tune your Norton Security Suite to both protect you and

also eliminate the computer slowness they have if Norton is not properly set.
