Default Duping the easily duped

The #3 under-reported tech story from InfoWorld includes an interesting detail regarding malware and users of Foxnews.com.

Who would think such folks could be easily tricked by social engineering exploits?

Hurry up and install that new CODEC so we can watch Glen Beck!

I was watching Fox yesterday at the gym, and during their coverage of the Nigerian lap burner they interviewed 3 different "experts" for their opinion.......And lo and behold, all 3 of them were conservatives who of course took the opportunity to bash Obama for one reason or another. One of them (a Republican congresswoman from FL) kept saying over and over how the terrorist should be handed over to the military so that they could use "the most intensive interrogation procedures this country can bring to bear".........Never mind the fact that the military is now limited to the same procedures found in the FBI manual.

Fox News caters to those who are either:
1) dumb blondes who are afraid of everything (think MADD on roids)
2) fake patriots (people who use words & ribbons to prove how patriotic they are)
3) people who are easily impressed by hot young broadcasters

Didn't dupe me, douchenozzle. I just said it was a deceptive practice. Reading IS fundamental.

Why do you ask? I had a connectivity issue earlier because somehow the wireless adapter got disabled. Runs fine now. Speed is great too.
