New Zimbabwe.com site dangerous for your computer

On Sunday 19 April 2009 I wrote the editor of the above site advising him that his public website poses great danger to unsuspecting users that need to be attended to without delay and received the usual pre-written acknowledgement of my e-mail which promises further follow up at a later stage.

I have just visited the site and found that no action has been taken to rectify the threats i brought to the attention of the editor.

Before you visit the site please read the report and ensures your computer is adequately protected against the threats highlighted by the Norton Safe Web analysis of the site reproduced hereunder.
