With the news of over 500,000 web pages this past week.  If you are a reader of my blog, you’ve heard me suggest that you use an alternative browser like FireFox.  Not that FireFox is ’safe’, because all software written has vulnerabilities.  That is a fact.  But you can combat these types of attacks by using FireFox and then install the add on call NoScript.  After installing this, you will control what scripting gets executed.  These attacks are always pointing at bad places such as servers hosted in our friendly nation of China.  If you were to go to a site that was hacked, you would have seen this script and those funny host names mentioned in my previous post.

Make the switch if you haven’t already.  FireFox has great features and using some of these add ons will actually protect you from these JavaScript injection attacks.  Take care and have a safe week!
