Rogue Domains, Sears, Banner Ads, BUSTED!

Some new info posted in the forums, so I'll summarize here for you.

A new set of rogue domains has been posted, I'm sure all will be added to most hosts files soon enough.

The rogue banner ads thread has an addition, a German sites been hit now and Sandi has details as usual.

As if things were not bad enough, sears has suffered a serious privacy issue. Bought anything there lately? If so I can tell you what it is.

Trend Labs lists their top December threats for those keeping score.

Finally we have a new forum called BUSTED! In there you'll find links and articles of people who've been busted in online related scams. Not so much rogue stuff really, more for actual legal cases.
