An interesting study by a Danish security firm found the main reasons people get viruses is because they don’t update their software.

The main vectors for getting infected are via old versions of Adobe Flash, Adobe PDF Reader, Java and Microsoft Internet Explorer. So if you use these, make sure you keep them up to date!

The conclusion of this study is that as much as 99.8 % of all virus/malware infections caused by commercial exploit kits are a direct result of the lack of updating five specific software packages.

As they say, prevention is better than a cure. As annoying as it is, it’s safer to keep your software up to date (and less annoying than getting a virus).

Microsoft recently published a similar study where they found about 90% of virus infections were through unpatched software.

This week Mike Cowles is taking a friend by the hand to prove he can generate $1,000 or more in one week – and his friend has zero experience online (he lays tile for a living). The training will be showcased next Monday and Tuesday as part of his Emergency Cash Marketing.  For more information check it out at http://tinyurl.com/4×3a2pz (signup ends Sunday 6/12/11 at midnight).  He said it will take some time to set up, and if you can’t invest about 2 hrs a day for a week to do what he teaches, or the program would create a hardship, it’s not for you.

From Mike: 

Cory is one of my best friends of over twenty years and recently had some surgery that caused him to not be able to work on his day job of laying tile. When he was doing tile, he did awesome, but it is taking a toll on his knees, shoulder and soul. Cory asked me for advice since he knew I was doing well…

Cory is a complete and total newbie. He’s never set up a blog or website, he hasn’t bought any IM products, etc.

As a matter of fact, he didn’t even know what a domain was until I told him yesterday! And why should he? He was making good money (in his eyes) doing tile.

I decided the best way to help Cory was to walk him through everything he needed to start generating at least $1,000 a week, and since Cory’s situation is so common and there are so many warriors that would love to have the same help and guidance, I decided to do a workshop and have Cory be my case study.

The workshop will be held this Monday and Tuesday (June 13, 14) at 4pm ET. Both 2 hour sessions will be recorded. He’ll be sharing 3 different methods for creating a "completely original product to generate ongoing cash for months."

He’s priced his two day workshop (it’s really two webinars) at $67, which is less than half what he normally charges for trainings.
