Or a malicious Denial Of Service Attack....for a time last year, a trojan was being blasted out of the primary DNS for Raging bull. You would get it whenever you searched a member profile.

In addition to downloading several forms of spyware and hacktools, it had the capability to allow the hackers to remotely synchronize thousands of members' PCs... each is instructed to send a few packets to whomever their current "target" was.

Not enough data for the owners to notice, but multiplied by 1,000s of PCs this would result in the target site shutting down due to enormous traffic.

Freaking Russians IMO.

Good stocks are obvious. Extensive DD is how you convince yourself to buy a bad one.
