Since this blog is on WordPress, I should pass along this notice from Protos. A malware hack is using WordPress blogs, or more specifically websites based on WordPress with their own logins and storefronts and so on. The hacker presents a popup that seems to be coming from your browser (Firefox, Chrome, etc) asking you to update the browser. When you click OK, the malware loads and takes over your computer.

Internet users should simply be wary of any unexpected ‘Your browser needs updating’ notification, especially when visiting a website that uses WordPress. Users should only update their browser from the browser’s settings area — not by clicking a button within a website, no matter how realistic it appears.
