Half of Fortune 500s, US Govt. Still Infected with DNSChanger Trojan

http://j.mp/xPJQJB  (Krebs on Security)

   "Computers still infected with DNSChanger are up against a countdown
    clock. As part of the DNSChanger botnet takedown, the feds secured a
    court order to replace the Trojan's DNS infrastructure with surrogate,
    legitimate DNS servers. But those servers are only allowed to operate
    until March 8, 2012. Unless the court extends that order, any
    computers still infected with DNSChanger may no longer be able to
    browse the Web."
