[lbo-talk] The Nation web site sabotaged?

[Sheldon Baker]

Did you let The Nation know about it, and did they respond? Does the
virus download solely by visiting the web site, or was it from the
search?  Thanks for the heads up, I was planning on visiting the site
to check up on the series on socialism.  You think it is safe for
that?

I downloaded a new anti-virus software (AVG - free edition) and tried to visit The Nation again.  This time the anti-virus software detected the threat.
