The subjects reported by McAfee so far include "First US swine flu victims," "Swine flu in USA," and, for the celebrity-obsessed, "Salma Hayek caught swine flu!" and "Madonna caught swine flu!" McAfee also reports that domain name registrations based on "swine" have increased thirtyfold. That observation is confirmed by a report from security vendor F-Secure. Just last weekend, F-Secure reports, new registrations included avoidswineflu.com, preventswineflu.com, swineflurecovery.org, and swineflu2010.us. (That's just four out of the 278 on F-Secure's list .) According to F-Secure, none of the sites have yet been reported to contain malware. |
