According to USA Today, it seems that hackers are targeting the popular social networking site Facebook to spread malware. A new attack is being spread on Facebook users' "walls," or message boards, by a link that asks them to watch a video. But when they go there, the link sends them to a Website that spreads malware. Facebook is taking security measures to combat the problem.

Chances are -- if you have an email account -- you have been one of the unlucky recipients of spam mail. Spammers, or people who send mass unsolicited messages, have found a new way to grab your attention and possibly hijack your computer. Hackers can use fake attention --grabbing headlines about celebrities like Brittany Spears and Lebron James -- to get you to click on their message. Then spammers can use your computer as a Trojan horse for even more spam. It's a new technique on the rise, and it could be putting put your computer and e-mail accounts at risk. So remember, if you don't know the sender, or it looks too good to be true -- don't open it.

The French now have an option to use a cell phone then toss it away or recharge it. The new BICphone comes with 60 minutes of talk time and a ready-to-use battery that's rechargeable. It comes from the BIC company, the same manufacturer of disposable razors, pens and lighters. The BICphone is available at stores around Paris for 49 Euros -- or about $76 American.
