Tell me about it. The "IT" "staff" at my girlfriend's job didn't secure
her machine properly. It got exploited and started popping up porn. I
told her to go search Google for "spybot." Well, guess what. The exploit
changed the results to put some other piece of software in the number one
spot, which I suspect was a trojan. To confirm, I did the same search and
got the expected results. While this can be explained by Google altering
results for different browsers/IP's/etc, I doubt it.
