Lost fans looking for answers get virus
Lost fans who are looking for answers on the Internet won't likely find any, but they could end up with a virus.
Computer security company PandaLabs says on its blog that the rogueware MySecurityEngine redirects a person's search for something like the Lost season finale - which takes place Sunday - to a fake website and a security alert pops up. Some might think the alert is from their computer, and if they click on the link, will end up with an infected computer.
The malware "is using a varied medley of subjects, some of them arousing people¹s interest, like the successful series Lost," reads the PandaLabs blog. "The websites displayed have nothing to do with the search carried out. Instead of it, an image that seems to be My Computer is displayed with an alert message of infection after having scanned the system."
