Free USB stick at fairs? Think again

Free USB stick at fairs? Think again

Today read an article where the Norwegian security police have gone public. They are recomending people to be vary, on putting free usb stick recieved at tech fairs, into their computers. And its true of course, the second you plug in a intentionally infected usb stick installed with worms, spyware and viruses, you have let it bypass personal and company firewalls and other securities. All stored and ready to act when you plug it in. So your freebie is suddenly a very expensive little thing.
