The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts directed employees earlier this month not to log onto the Drudge Report website with government-issued computers due to potential viruses on the site.
In a message sent May 4, Paul Harvey of the Boston office wrote that security officials with the U.S. Attorney’s Office at the Department of Justice asked them “to reformat/reimage two computers because the user visited the drudgereport.com site.”
“Please avoid the Drudgereport website from the [United States Attorney’s Office] computers,” Harvey wrote.

The truth is a virus?
You can log on to the Druge Report?
A virus of the mind by their standards.
Maybe that’s why my computer crashed yesterday.
It’s always a bad sign when the IT guy looks at your screen, turns around, and asks, “Is there anything important on your hard drive?”
But would it be OK for them to log onto Barney Frank’s D-Mass website? No viruses there, eh?
Unbelievable. I log on to Drudge several times a day and have never caught a virus. Petty excuse.
The list, ping
To far left democrats it is. The truth vs their version = pelosification.
I usually ask people if they have their resume stored there.

Only with the secret 'right wing conspiracy' decoder ring. :)
I have had spyware installed from a drudge advertiser several times. I live on drudge so I had to apply extra precautions to prevent it.
How true. With the amount of software and hardware the Government uses to prevent infection, peons like us with a software firewall don’t have a problem but they do.
Further evidence of Liberal thought control. Lots of things are quickly coming to a head... I wonder how long the pressure on the American people will remain contained....and what happens when it is unleashed...
You said — A virus of the mind by their standards.

Actually, if you read the report, it said there was an ad on the website that had the virus. Also, they identified other popular websites with a virus, including espn.com ...
Don’t check out public opinion on whether Johnny Sutton should be fired for malfeasance or not either.
Get a MAC dopey.
