| Why is that a problem? Well, the DNS, or Domain Name Server system, is a critical part of how the Internet works. A DNS server turns domain names, such as www.komando.com, into IP addresses that computers use to contact websites. My site's IP address, for example, is 66.210.246.177; good luck remembering that! In other words, a DNS server is like your cellphone's address book. The address book has the names and phone numbers of all your friends and family. You just pick the name you want and the phone dials the number. |
| Normally, your computer connects to your Internet service provider's DNS servers. DNSChanger, however, modifies your computer's DNS settings to use hacker-run DNS servers. The hacker-run servers send you to malicious websites filled with viruses and spam, or substitute legitimate site ads with malicious ads. Imagine someone got into your phone's address book and changed all the numbers to 900 numbers. The names in the address book are the same, but the phone numbers are all wrong. Yikes! Back in November, after a two-year investigation, the FBI arrested a major group of hackers involved in this DNSChanger scheme and confiscated its servers. The FBI replaced the malicious DNS servers with temporary, clean DNS servers. | |
| The idea was that this would keep infected computers safe while the users removed DNSChanger. Unfortunately, few people bothered to clean their computers. It's estimated that 50 percent of Fortune 500 companies and government agencies still have computers with DNSChanger installed. That doesn't count all the personal computers that still have it, which is estimated at 500,000. That actually isn't that much by malware standards, but it's still significant. |
| Currently, the FBI is scheduled to shut down the temporary DNS servers on Mar. 8. That's when the FBI's court order for the operation expires. There is a chance, however, that it might receive an extension. When those DNS servers shut down, all the computers and websites still using them will be knocked off the Internet. That might include your computer or sites that you visit. What can you do? Well, you can make sure your computer doesn't have DNSChanger installed. Pay a visit to http://dns-ok.us. This site will indicate if your computer is looking up websites correctly. If it shows green, then you shouldn't have anything to worry about. If it's red, or if your computer loses its Internet connection on the 8th, you'll need to grab some security software and clean your computer.

....part1/2.......FBI Linked to Yet Another Domestic Terrorism Plot.Sun, 18 Mar 2012 16:56 CDT, American Free Press. © Tracy A. Woodward / The Washington Post. In its latest effort to panic the American public, the FBI last month fabricated an alleged al Qaeda terror plot against the U.S. Capitol Building. According to reports published by Russian news outlet RT and others, after arresting an intoxicated American-born drug dealer of Moroccan descent, FBI agents drove him to the Capitol, and handed him a fake bomb, before summarily rearresting him on Feb. 17. Over the course of a year, 29-year-old Amine El Khalifi, who was clearly mentally ill and often high on cocaine and other drugs, was persuaded by an FBI informant to agree to attack the U.S. Capitol. Because El Khalifi didn't have a gun, a bomb or a car, the FBI informant graciously offered to provide him all three - and thus El Khalifi was driven to the U.S. Capitol building by the FBI, handed a gun and a bomb, and then arrested as an "al Qaeda operative.".. Khalifi was best known for his years of selling drugs and strutting through D.C. nightclubs in designer suits, living a playboy lifestyle. But two years ago, while dating a Muslim woman of Bulgarian and Turkish descent, El Khalifi embraced Islam and became religious, friends said. After the relationship ended, the girlfriend, obviously disgruntled, contacted the FBI and suggested her ex-boyfriend might be a good target for a frame-up. .. When El Khalifi had a dispute with his landlord, the landlord called the police. This allowed the FBI to enter El Khalifi's apartment, where they then found some "Islamic literature." .. The FBI, anxious to fabricate a terror plot, met El Khalifi and determined that his mind had been fried from a decade of cocaine abuse, and that he was likely suffering from a serious mental illness. Realizing that such a mentally vulnerable person would be an easy dupe, the FBI then cultivated him as a potential "terrorist" patsy, what the FBI calls a "controlled prevention." As one FBI official put it: " In situations like this - a controlled prevention - the person is predisposed to act and the FBI will give him enough rope to hang himself. Courts have upheld this kind of action time after time." Under U.S. law, the federal government can entrap any person they believe to be "dangerous" - and most federal cases are based on such entrapments, because they are easier to prosecute than actual criminal acts. "It was another 'sting' operation with a mentally deficient guy," former CIA counterterrorism chief Vincent Cannistraro told the online news agency Huffington Post. "He was led on by an FBI asset."
These types of arrests are being used by the government to delude the American public and perpetuate a climate of fear that has allowed the government to seize extraordinary powers and has provided cover for the arrests of domestic political opponents as well......(....)

...(....) One day after the first shooting in Toulouse (March 12th), French political analyst and director of the political magazine L'Express, Christophe Barbier (Barber), appeared on the French TV show C dans L'Air (It's in the Air) and is reported to have said the following: "The only chance for Sarkozy to win the election, is if an event outside of his campaign occurs. An international, exceptional or traumatizing event. Only a cataclysm that is capable of rallying the French people around their president, can offer Sarkozy the chance of reelection." (The article containing the above quote was removed from the web the same day it was posted (20/03/12).
