Fake Firefox Update Includes Trojan
According to various reports, some users have recently received a Firefox update notification to their emails with a download link for you to try.
Don’t worry though; it does actually include a Firefox 5.0.1 installer. However, it is bundled with a Trojan horse, which is not exactly what people prefer.
It looks like Firefox related emails are getting more and more popular as just yesterday we have received a message informing us about the “Mozilla Firefox Inc Lotto” winnings.
Any takers?

Leaving aside the usual scam emails which have some big companies behind them (also called the competition) it’s been a long time since I’ve seen the famous ribbon interface.
The biggest item in there is the “Delete” button – sure the first thing that people do when receiving emails ;). Also the “reply and delete” button in the central part is quite amusing – as a heavy email user I never felt the need to make such an action…
Ribbon is awesome! I was a hater before getting used to it, and now it’s like a breeze of fresh air.
Can’t wait to see Windows 8 explorer, which does include Ribbon.
Ribbon is for blind people.
People *that* dumb deserve no better.
Again another scam that i won’t see cause of my g-mail’s spam blocker.
