Targeted Trojan attacks on the rise

Targeted Trojan attacks on the rise
Robert Lemos, SecurityFocus 2006-10-13

"MONTRÉAL - On December 1, 2005, two e-mail messages were sent from a
computer in Western Australia to members of two different human rights
organizations. Each e-mail message carried a Microsoft Word document with a
previously unknown exploit that would take control of the targeted person's
computer and open up a beachhead into the group's network."

Fix your newsclient and you won't have problems...

Now, do you have anything to add of a technical nature or are you trolling
