Emailed Computer Malware Alert |
|
From the joint FBI and CISA – a warning about phishing emails which claim to contain proof of a traffic violation. The hope is that people are scared into opening the email to find out more. DON'T open it!
The malicious email contains a link which sends users to a website which tells the victim to click on a photo to see proof. If they click the photo, they actually download Trickbot onto their system.

The Academy Awards: Music Makes the Movies
Roger Robbins
A snappy tune, a poignant love song, or a thundering soundtrack can make a movie. Sometimes, the music is what we remember most. How many people recognize the film Breakfast at Tiffanys? (Quite a few). But, from that movie, how many people would recognize the song "Moon River"? (Half the world) Enjoy these Movies with Oscar Nominations for Music. Tap your foot, hum along, and enjoy the show!

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price's attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He's the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move. First book in a series. Read more…
