		<description><![CDATA[Facebook users by and large have the inherent gullibility of a 2-year old. They&#039;ll fall for anything, which makes them the proverbial low-hanging fruit of the internet. The latest shiny thing they can be tricked into clicking on is the &#34;Dislike Button&#34;, which of course is just another way to trick them into displaying their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spammers, like all primitive forms of life, continue to evolve in ways calculated to enhance their viability or survival potential. The most recently observed wrinkle they&#039;ve come up with is using short-lived or &#34;disposable&#34; domain names.&#160; These are domains that they use for only a few hours before switching to the next one.

		<description><![CDATA[If you have a website, it&#39;s being attacked, probably on a daily basis. Looking at your server logs will almost undoubtedly show you many, many attempts at gaining entry by password-guessing bots or by repeated attempts to exploit your web forms.
