Since 'blogging' is the direction things are going on the net, I
thought it was important to pass along this warning:

** Bogus blogs snare fresh victims **

Users are being warned to watch out for bogus weblogs that hide
malicious programs on their pages.

Some blogs apparently are set up only for the purpose of luring guys
into read them, then sneaking a virus or worm onto the guy's computer
and turning it (computer) into a zombie.
