Political rivals plant worm
AN AUSTRALIAN politician has come the raw prawn and alleged rivals planted a worm on his website.
Steven Ciobo, the Member for the Gold Coast electorate of Moncrieff has a nice bland site here, so imagine his disgust when he discovered that people who actually visited the place downloaded some kind of worm.
It is enough to give a bloke squatters in the outback. Steve seems to be convinced that one of his rivals cracked his site and put the worm there. He has called for the Australian Federal Police to investigate how the worm got onto his website.
He also told the Aussie Associated Press that it was his political foes who must have done it, even though an election has not been announced yet. He didn’t say what the virus was either nor how the hacker got past his security.
