Here's a great little review of the Angler exploit kit.    More in-depth detail here.

There's this site I keep coming across, and I can't figure out what it's used for.   It only seems to pop-up from a few clients, and they never seem to have anything untoward installed on their systems.

It's seems to route only traffic to a specific site, zerohedge.com

It doesn't route everyone's traffic to that site, only one of two people.

I'm sticking it here in case anyone else is having the same issue I am.

Almost to the Year

Here we are, almost to the year since my last post here.  I'm moved, both physically and employment-wise.   I'm out of the Lotus Notes support field, and now looking at IT Security as a whole.

Specifically, I'm running an enterprise anti-malware, anti-malvertising, anti-virus program.  You're going to start seeing some posts relating to that, but Lotus Notes will still be represented,as that is the email platform that we still support.

Thoughts expressed are mine, and not that of my employer.  (blah, blah, blah..)
