Warning – Scams Related To Death Of Osama Bin Laden
As usual, cyber scammers are using a big news event to grab
Internet users' attention and get them to click on malware. No official
videos or photos of bin Laden's body have been released but that hasn't
stopped millions of people from searching for them online. And cyber
criminals are doing their best to scam those millions of searchers—often
redirecting them to webpages where they could unknowingly download malicious
software.
Internet security organizations are warning of scams including the following:
 "Confirmation of death/life" spam email — In this scam, the cyber crooks distribute spam
emails either claiming to have photos or videos that confirm the death
of Osama bin Laden or evidence that he is still alive. For instance,
they might claim that the email contains a photo of bin Laden holding a
newspaper with today's date. If you open the email and click on the
included links or photos, it downloads malware onto your machine. - Dangerous social media messages — In addition to sending spam emails, the scammers
are also distributing messages on Facebook that claim to contain links
to shocking videos of bin Laden's death. They ask recipients to copy and
paste the Web address of the video into their browser, but once they do,
it spams their Facebook wall with the link.
Be wary of any unsolicited messages that claim to have news on
bin Laden, and never click on links or attachments included in these messages
since they could download malicious software onto your computer or spam your
friends and contacts. When you're interested in researching any news event,
stick to well-known and reputable news sites.

Father of the Century
Here's a true story of the inspirational love that a father, Dick Hoyt, has
for his son Rick who was born with cerebral palsy. To expand his son's life
experiences, Dick has participated in multiple triathlons and marathons
while pushing, carrying, or pulling Rick along with him. During this month
in which we honor fathers, this video is a must-see.

The Mountain and the Milky Way
For a moment of calm in your busy day, take a look at this amazing time-lapsed
video. It was filmed over the course of a week in April 2011 on Spain's
highest mountain, Mount Teide, and features breathtaking footage of the
Milky Way galaxy as well as a Sahara sandstorm. The combination creates an
almost other-worldly impression that's uniquely beautiful.

This Month's FAQ – How Do I Remove A Photo Tag On Facebook?
Question: My Facebook friends sometimes tag me in
photos that I really don't like and don't want to be associated with. How do
I remove the tag?
Answer: You do have control of your tags on Facebook; only friends can
tag you in photos and you can be notified when a friend tags you by selecting
your personal preferences using the "Notifications" tab on the
Account Settings page. To remove a tag on Facebook, simply view the photo and
click the "remove tag" link next to your name. The photo will no
longer be linked to your profile.
Be aware, however, that Facebook can't make people remove photos
that don't violate its Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. If you don't
want a photo of you to be shown at all, you'll need to talk to the friend who
posted it and ask them to remove it. If someone is repeatedly tagging you in
embarrassing photos, you may want to remove that person as a friend.
