Malware-laden spam promises pop videos
Security experts have warned internet users about malware hidden in spam emails claiming to offer new music videos from a number of pop stars.

The wave of malicious emails purports to offer links to new music videos, and includes subject lines such as 'awesome new video' and 'cool video is out'.

Musical artists referred to in the emails include Beyoncé, Kelly Clarkson, Rihanna, The Eagles, Foo Fighters, R Kelly and Velvet Revolver.

If it's from a source you have never heard of, NUKE IT!
