Thousands of home computers infiltrated after hackers infect high-profile websites with booby-trapped ads | Mail Online: "Tens of thousands of people are feared to have had their computers infected by booby-trapped advertisements on websites including the London Stock Exchange.

The scam, which also involved ads on Autotrader, Vue and six other websites, took place on Sunday after cyber criminals hacked into an advertising firm's computer system.

The malicious advertisements then caused fake virus warnings to pop-up on computers belonging to those surfing the affected sites."
