Malware's new infection route: photo frames
It wasn't a pretty picture when Rick Sandy plugged in the digital photo frame his wife had given him for Christmas. When he started downloading pictures to the device, his computer froze. He restarted it, and his Norton anti-virus software went blank. Then, the files that controlled his computer disappeared. And Sandy - an information technology expert himself - was shut out of his own machine. "It was the nastiest virus I've ever encountered," said Sandy, who spent 12 hours rebuilding his computer. Sandy's experience was an example of how the continually adapting world of cyberhackers is spreading its tentacles from computers to the electronic devices that plug into them. Malicious software code has turned up on a wide range of popular electronics, from digital photo frames to compact flash cards to MP3 players - even MP3-playing sunglasses - and retailers are scrambling to respond.

Celebrities Celebrate Art
LA is so much more than Disneyland and Hollywood studios. Last night the city of the stars celebrated the opening of The Broad Contemporary Art Museum at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. An A-list crowd including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tony Bennett, Dustin Hoffman and of course The Cruises showed their support. Katie looked beautiful even if we're not loving the scarf while Tom looked perfectly put together in his three piece suit. Christina continued to show off her curves in a bold blue dress while playing it up for the cameras. Joel Madden kept things rock and roll while Nicole looked elegant, well rested and calm in her soft taupe colored dress. They came to cheer on Grandpa Lionel Richie who was part of the evening's entertainment but they didn't stay long since they went on to Clive Davis' Pre-Grammy party.
