Hopefully this will be remedied soon - apologies to those of you having to wait a long time between pageloads.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/scienc...-Monday-for-computer-viruses.html
| Quote: | The spread of viruses and malicious software is expected to peak on Nov 24, along with attempts by hackers to seize control of computers, according to PC Tools.
The company has analysed information on more than 500,000 computers worldwide, and looked at data from the same period last year, which appears to suggest the Monday before Thanksgiving in the US is a prime time for security attacks.
PC Tools believes this could be because of the increased online activity at this time of the year, as people starting shopping online for Christmas gifts, and for details of bargains they might be able to pick up on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, when many US stores hold huge sales.
Online shoppers are a tempting target for hackers and fraudsters, many of whom will try and trick consumers into clicking links in emails and websites that will download software onto their computers that allows malicious attackers to take remote control of the system.
Hackers will then be able to log keystrokes in order to access banking login details and passwords for online shopping sites.
Security experts have warned web users to be especially vigilant in the run-up to Christmas. |
Could explain something perhaps??
