How can I get rid of this? I've been told it is a virus! When I enter Yahoo.com it redirects me to icslleida.cat; note that this only happens on Google Chrome, when I use Internet Explorer it works just fine. Any ideas?

A friend told me that hackers can only hack with telnet if you have telnet server enabled. Is it so or are there are means of hacking with telnet?

Recently we have all become somewhat over-exposed to the leaking of customer data courtesy of inadequate security allowing hackers to gain access to databases. The [LinkedIn LeakedOut leak](http://www.daniweb.com/internet-marketing/social-media-and-communities/news/425019/linkedin-confirms-six-million-password-hack-check-if-yours-is-one-of-them) and [eHarmony dating data disaster](http://www.daniweb.com/hardware-and-software/microsoft-windows/viruses-spyware-and-other-nasties/news/425118/dating-disaster-eharmony-confirms-passwords-exposed-by-linkedin-hacker#post1817377) are good examples of the genre. However, let's not forget that sometimes no hackers are required to …
