Caution - Olympic Spam

Symantec, a maker of security software, reports that in July 78 percent of all email sent was spam. That is up 12 percent from the same time last year. As the Olympics start on Friday, August 8, 2008, there is a prediction that spam and malicious messages will increase. Beware those messages offering special video clips or other enticements. These may be ways to draw users in and infect their computers.
