Google’s Blogger: Site Attack

There is an attack to trick Google’s Blogger users into triggering a malware download:

“…The fake entries contain weblinks that lead to booby-trapped downloads that could infect a Windows PC.

Infected computers are being hijacked by the gang behind the attacks and either mined for saleable data or used for other attacks.”

Be cautious of the links - and make sure your security applications have been updated and that there latest definitions are being used. This seems to be a massive attack.
