New Monster Phish Bait
A reader recently submitted for review a new phish attempt which asks readers to download the "new Monster Job Seeker Tool". The email looks authentic, as the HTML source code is pulling images from monster.com, as well as having links to other monster.com pages, however the download does not come from monster.com. The download software link pulls the download from monster-freesoftware.com. Of course, what is downloaded is not something monster.com would approve of.
I have sent a copy of the email to abuse@monster.com for their records as well.

A busy Black Tuesday coming up.....
Bryan submitted today that Microsoft has sent out a pre-release notification of the goodies we can expect on Tuesday. Taking directly from Bryan's message...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 patch affecting "XML Core Services", rated "critical", will require a reboot
5 patches affecting Windows, maximum rating "critical", some of these will require a reboot
New "Malicious Software Removal Tool"
2 additional "non-security high-priority updates" will be released, but only on Microsoft Update and WSUS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Microsoft has stated here that they "will continue to support Software Update Services (SUS) 1.0 until December 6, 2006. Microsoft will no longer support SUS 1.0 after this date." That means this is the last chance to finish testing WSUS for use on the production networks.
Thank you Bryan for the great information
