Is your computer infected from the 4th largest visited website??

Wait, Yahoo was serving serving up malware?
Yes. The security firm Fox-IT was the first to report the problem on Friday. Basically, users visiting yahoo.com were served ads from ads.yahoo.com. That part is normal. But some of those "advertisements" weren't actually ads. They were malicious software that redirected visitors to a Web site that attempted to take over their computers. If successful, the malicious software, known as "malware," can spy on you, collect passwords or credit card numbers, order your computer to automatically generate fraudulent pageviews for a third-party Web page to generate advertising revenue, or even hijack your computer to generate bitcoins.

Everything you need to know about Yahoo?s security breach

The important thing is to get computer literate because I could generate several of these news stories every year and it is basically the same old problem where victims are trying to catch up with what is dangerous on the web.

Same with the new Youtube changes - Google has ruined Youtube.
