This "danger" has been well publicized over the last couple of weeks.  Do 
a Google search and you will find numerous accounts of this as well as 
explaining how this all came to be.

As an example of this story, go to

www.wokv.com

and use your screen readers' search capability entring the word malware.
You will land on a link to an extended AP article which explains all this 
in detail and there are hundreds, if not thousands, of such similar 
stories out there.

Realistically, I would think that if you are running up-to-date security 
software, the malware which causes this problem would have been long ago 
removed.





Q:  What's God's phone number?
A:  Jeremiah 33:3

Call to me and I will answer you,
and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.
