Ever wondered how exactly blackhat SEO works? My brother has forwarded me a link to an excellent video shot by Sophos, which shows how they are taking advantage of the hottest/trending topics (on Google and Bing).

Their eventual goal is to infect your computer with malware (and ultimately, get your money, one way or another).

Enjoy, and spread around for others to see this too...

Good question. I'd say: install a trusted anti-malware firewall (Norton, ZoneAlarm, or similar) and trust only your own anti-virus.

Terrifying - ignore this at your peril!

Question: How do non-techies know what to look for if the malware is so perfectly disguised???
