Milosevic Pictures Contain Trojan

Thursday March 16, 2006
Earlier this week, former Yugoslavian leader Slobodan Milosevic died in his cell. He was being held in The Hague on trial for war crimes for his part in the bloodshed in Bosnia, Kosovo and Croatia during the 1990's. He was also charged with genocide for the deaths of 100,000 people in Bosnia between 1992 and 1995. His death has been ruled a heart attack, but suspicions remain that he may have either committed suicide or been murdered. A new email is going around claiming to have photos that prove Milosevic was murdered. Those who open the attachment will actually infect their computers with a Trojan. For more about the the Milosevic malware, read this article from The Register: Slobodan trojan poses as murder pics.
