There is a new web threat out there that we all need to be aware of. (No, this is not a joke.)
What happens is that malicious sites are working hidden frames in behind the main page that you are seeing and have it figured out a way so that if you click on what you think looks like your real page, your click is actually clicking on the hidden frame below it.
The security problem is that you may be clicking on a link to install bad stuff on your computer. This is not good.
You may actually be on a well known, trusted site, but be clicking on something else hidden below.
There are a couple things to do to help.
First, if you are using Firefox, install the "NoScript" addon (extension). Now, when you add this, you will hate it. It will break MANY innocent sites because of the use of javascript, etc. You can then whitelist the site if you feel it is not a risk. This is the safest way to browse. IF you find that whitelisting sites is too much hassle and you want to take your chances with most scripting, you can "Allow scripts globally" in the NoScript settings. The cool thing is that even with it allowing scripting, it WILL STILL protect you from this clickjacking problem.
Also, UPDATE YOUR FLASH. Go to Adobe.com and download the latest version of the flash player and install it. It has new security fixes to also help stop this when it is implemented through Flash which is just one of the ways they are doing it.
