Hi Imhotep,
I am surprised this link opened cleanly for me on this system.
The last one of a few days back for the same site required me
to refuse 6 cookies and 2 activeX controls ;-(
Yep, it is a ruthless, and accelerating, net-world.
Notice how this one implies that non-OS, unpatched vulnerabilities
may be gaining favor as vectors, and as always, (unaware) user
behavior is a key factor also.
As for the targetted attempt, with the growth in exploit frameworks
and size of shared vector code libaries, we will probably only see
more and more of this type thing, using routes that do get to the
inside most directly (browser/office applications and user behavior).
