Gun ban group goes nuclear in latest hysterical attack on rights advocate

TSA Keeping Us Safe

I put my 87-year-old mother on an airplane this morning.  They took her aside and wanded/patted her down.

Hotmail Hacked

My Hotmail edress got hijacked and sent out what I must assume is a malware link to my address book.  Either that or someone is spoofing my email address.  I just changed my password and am doing a scan to see if anyone has gotten into my machine.

Sorry for the inconvenience--please know I surf responsibly, don't open suspicious links or go to sites unapproved by my McAfee site adviser, and also do regular Malware Bytes scans.

If you clicked on the link in the email you received, better scan your computer.

UPDATE: Malwarebytes scan:
 Now I'll do a McAfee scan.

UPDATE: Clean:
I sent out emails to everyone in my address book warning against the bogus emails--it looks like everyone got several of them because Hotmail kept telling me the messages weren't sent so I sent them again.

I'm not sure how this whole sorry episode happened--one person suggested it may be a Facebook app allowing it to access Hotmail, but I don't use that for anything but posting links.  Anyway, my productivity for the day has been pretty much shot.
