Several prominent websites have come under attack from hackers who have
modified the underlying code so that malware can be distributed to unsuspecting
users who visit the site. When a user visits an infected site, an invisible
connection is established to a remote server, which can then attempt to install
malware on the user’s computer. The intention could be to generate spam, or
possibly something more sinister, such as stealing personal information e.g.
bank account or credit card details.
