    You can go to http://www.us-cert.gov/ and sign up for the new government mailed e-mail alerts of new cyber attacks and worms. It's an easy list-serv sign-up and you can select technical or non-technical alerts.

    Thought some of you might be interested...they have a couple of recent alerts posted on the main page so you can see what you'll be getting.

    It looks great but I'm not having any luck subscribing to the technical alerts (maybe I should try subscribing to the non-technical alerts :oops: ).

    Anyway, I haven't received a confirmation. Is the subject line really supposed to be blank?

    Following up on this.....it worked!

    The response is not immediate (as I had thought). It took circa 12 hours for the confirmation message to arrive.

    Now I know why they need a TV show to catch bad guys.
