[HIB]Hackers use Google trending topics to spread malware

The Google trends are once again a mix of hot trends, including the Gulf Oil Spill, Michael Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Microsoft and Microsoft Kinect. Unfortunately, those who are searching for more information on a trending topic are being lured in by hackers who don't provide anything more than an unhealthy dose of malware, a term used for malicious software. By using clever SEO (Search Engine Optimization) techniques, websites are created that look as if they are filled with information on news topics such as the Gulf oil crisis or supposed pictures of Miley Cyrus in the buff. Unfortunately, the sites can cause a virus to attack your computer and will provide you with absolutely none of the information you are looking for.
