Potential Threat

RSS.... how many of us use it !!

Most of the security analyst claim that worms will begin to utilize RSS to update themselves and spread new malware . Now a days most of our feeds are from sites where some one post a link to another sites . there is a high chance that one can embed malicious code in the feed that can download a worm and start spreading from your machine . This applicable to Desktop agent as well as web based RSS readers.
