For those of you who are interested in the United States' newest president, someone else isn't. Please be advised.

It's a "phishing" tactic to spread a "trojan horse virus". Who ever must have had it set up in advance and just customized it to deploy it quickly. Poop-heads I like to call these people who do this.

Poop-heads, huh?

I like that

It could be argued that anyone who bought into the Obama hype deserves to be infected

Yep, they do indeed deserve it. Unfortunately, the IT consultant in me will be one of the army that will have to go out and clean it up.... Oh joy.....

It will trick you into downloading a malicious program that will infect your computer. If you get an email that is suspicious, just delete it if your antivirus program didn't already catch it for you.

I don't really know too much about any political subject (in other words, let's try to keep this down so that it will not develop into a political battle). I do hope it works out for the best, though.
