With the new PC scare going around among Adobe Reader, I came across a cool web site that describes the threats today. 

Glossary of PC Threats

Be sure to keep updates on you web applications, not just antivirus.  Hackers are turning to other methods now, like through Adobe Acrobat and other common applications.  Rememeber, ones that install trojan horses can record keystrokes and see where you are visting online.  Also be sure to run a root-kit scanner located here: at the bottom of the page called "Black Light". 

Just tonight, my server is being attacked by many IP addresses, mainly in Turkey and Russia.

I've heard that Russia is the main home of the infamous "cool web search" spyware.

Tom, have you ever tried Foxit Reader. It's a nifty little PDF reader that I like better than Adobe acrobat.
