If you search for the word "antivirus" on major search engines like Google, Yahoo, or MSN there is a possibility you will end up with "6StarReview.com" or "StarReviews.com" with a link name like "Top 10 Antivirus for 2008" as one of top sponsored ads. The Star Reviews is basically a Web-only review site that covers everything from blog services to online banking. Perhaps the site is a bit heavy on affiliate links, but nothing out of the ordinary. No pop-ups. No browser exploits. All in all, it looks legit read more »

Digital real estate leased to one of the Internet's oldest landholders appears to have been quietly seized by e-mail marketers closely associated with an individual once tagged by anti-spam groups as the world's most notorious spammers. What's remarkable about this case study is that it pits a vocal spammer against the American Registry for Internet Numbers, which has yet to take action.

As expected, the 2.0 version of iPhone released today includes a number of security updates, patching more than a dozen holes in the slimmed-down OS X operating system that powers the devices.

Over the past week, a number of the Internet's largest data carriers have ceased providing online connectivity to Atrivo (a.k.a. "Intercage"), an ISP that security experts say is home to a huge number of scammers and spammers. This week, I'm turning the spotlight on EstDomains Inc., Atrivo's most important customer and the single biggest reason so many experts have condemned Atrivo.
