Insidious Trojans

The people who write Trojan-carrying email are getting clever. I just got one, disguised as an editorial query from Yale. The accompanying article and photos zip contained an EXE, which went straight to the trash.

Update: here's a second, very plausibly disguised as an editorial check from The Guardian.

Perhaps coincidentally, I've had an increasing number of my own editorial emails are being undelivered or ignored.
