Hey! Party at your house this weekend! That's right, it's a spam fest. I, myself, won't be celebrating the occasion, rumored on a web site dedicated to IT professionals earlier this week. The anonymous message offered to rent out hijacked personal computers to spammers.
If your PC is one of the unlucky infected "zombie" machines, not only may your email inbox be the host to dozens of uninvited spam messages, you may also be sending out spam fest notifications to thousands of other inboxes around the 'net.
There's no real info on how much spam you might receive this weekend, or if the spam fest warning is any more than hot air. Experts advise this: don't open your unwanted emails. And if you're reading this blog, you probably already know that.
