Gotta hand it to spammers. If you're mad as hell at the Obama administration, some spammers are conveniently making available software that they claim will let you launch a denial of service attack against Obama's website. Of course, it installs malware on the teabagger/birther/death panelist's machine.
Here's the kicker: you're promised money if you download the software and are advised to return to the site for updates if your antivirus software interferes with the program. I guess that if one is gullible enough to believe that the Prez was born in Kenya and faked his birth here or actually has plans for killing off grandma, then one will take advantage of this offer.
h/t to CNET and Proofpoint for the reports.
