McDonalds gives MP3 players infected with spyware as prizes


If it is not lawsuits then there is virus infected MP3 Players, the fast food giant is always in the news. It all started in August when McDonalds Japan in association with Coca Cola announced a contest, where a MP3 player was awarded upon sending the unique number on the Coke glass as a text message. In all 10,000 winners were announced and each got a Mac branded flash DAP preloaded with 10 tunes. However the MP3 players were infected with QQpass a very dangerous malware. So your PC is infected once you connect the DAP and it starts logging and transmitting username, passwords and other vital information. McDonalds Japan has apologized and set up a 24 hour helpline for those affected by the spyware loaded MP3 player. Becareful with what you hook up to ur pc!

anti-haze

haze haze haze! why are we, the citizens going thru the sufferings of the haze - itchy eyes, itchy throat, coughing, stuffed nose ... the list goes on and on. what's the point of having an anti-haze treaty (1996) if the country causing the haze and suffering isn't going to sign it or abide by it, another pointless piece of paper drawn up just to satisfy some environmentalist - who currently aren't doing much to ensure the haze stops. great work to the people of the country and leaders (so far there's been alot of talk, finger pointing and whining), 10 years since the anti-haze treaty was proposed, 10 years hasn't changed anything and somehow we are going to be a developed country by 2020 - how do u propose we change the mentality of our and neighbouring citizens in 14 years when we can't prevent haze sufferings for the past 10 years?
