Looking for Halloween themed sites? You may end up with a nasty Trick and no Treat.

Details from Patrick Jordan, otherwise known as Webhelper.

To tighten your security against injected iframes code to the Cactus families Vxgame site & megacount.net; disable the IFrame setting in IE:

Internet Options > Security tab > Custom Level button

Scroll down to: Launching programs and files in a IFrame

Select: Disable (IE7 by default is already set to Prompt)
