Yahoo! PH Purple Hunt 2.0 Ad Compromised ! Earlier the other day, I was browsing through the Yahoo! PH site and the Yahoo! Purple Hunt 2.0 ad caught my attention. Curious as I am, I clicked on the ad and surprisingly my browser downloaded a suspicious file named com.com. Apparently this ad redirected me to a randomly generated URL similar to the following which, unfortunately, led to the malicious download: hxxp://want6.{BLOCKED}.com/se/3da19bea8f9c03e96c9b1acad9cce5a88a2244f0a34d69 c09b8d3198b2797726789be0228c0df3c762ed088a2327b07f4a183fa6fa753b0acfd7f0afc2d2b 13b801ba978269fcda413f53e/960b0a2a/com.com hxxp://nose8.{BLOCKED}.com/se/3da19bea8f9c03e96c9b1acad9cce5a88a2244f0a34d69c 09b8d3198b2797726789be0228c0df3c762ed088a2327b07f4a183fa6fa753b0acfd7f0afc2d2b 13b801ba978269fcda413f53e/960b0a2a/com.com hxxp://letter6.{BLOCKED}.com/se/3da19bea8f9c03e96c9b1acad9cce5a88a2244f0a34d69c0 9b8d3198b2797726789be0228c0f3c762ed088a2327b07f4a183fa6fa753b0acfd7f0afc2d2b13 b801ba978269...

Facebook hacker posts stolen pics on porn site ! A 26-year-old man faces 13 felony charges after being accused of hacking into Facebook accounts, stealing photos of young women and posting them on porn sites, reports the Kansas City Star. Along with content belonging to the 13 young women (ages 17 to 25), Timothy P. Noirjean is accused of victimizing, investigators found 92 folders on his computer containing names or photos of women, as well as 235 email addresses with security information. Noirjean confessed to accessing more than 100 Facebook accounts, and told police he was unaware that it's a crime. The shocking thing here isn't that there are predators on the Internet, that Noirjean claims ignorance of the law, that police arrested Noirjean in his parents' basement (which, according to the report, they totally did) or that young ladies of today have porn-worthy photos of themselves in unencrypted files on their computers. It's that Noirjean carried out his crime...
