Valentines day = a hundred new malwares as usual
Computer users should beware (but won't) because a new celebration date is upon us. Virus/Trojan/Spam writers love any date in the diary that has a name of any kind next to it and of course Valentines Day is a biggy, especially for the lovestruck or needy. Email users can expect a deluge of tainted deliveries including e-cards, pdfs and zipped invoices purporting to be from a secret admirer. Love is such a good hook we will be seeing plenty of takers.
