Watching Twitter tonight has taught me one thing, Phillies fans are a bunch of whiny dicks. But it's ok, every tank needs a bottom feeder.

One of the peculiar aspects of this particular attack is that (unlike the frequently seen malware which claims it will lead to a naked video of Angelina Jolie or the Anna Kournikova worm of old) that it *can* show you footage of what appears to be Erin Andrews in her hotel room.
Why does this matter? Well, it may mean that users click on these links, get infected on their Mac or Windows PC and then *forward* the link so their online buddies can also "benefit" from the sleazy footage not realising that they are helping the hackers catch more victims. :(
I made a video demonstrating how hackers are infecting Macs and PCs with these websites: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4qbLKy32rI (everyone is welcome to embed the video on their blogs if they wish - the more people who are warned the better!)
