Hackers Successfully Hijack Google AdWords

At least 20 specific search terms that appeared on Google as legitimate ads, redirected users to smartattack.org, which distributed the malicious code. Users were sent to the legitimate site thereafter the damage was done. The flaw appears to only have affected users of the Microsoft Windows XP operating systems.

There are no numbers available of those affected, but that might be due to the fact that people have not finished reformatting their PC’s yet. Techgage’s ads however do not contain any spyware or trojans. Go on… find out for yourself.
