Podcast 49 Linux Malware Guide

In this Screencast I show you how easy it is to install malware on a Linux box running Gnome or KDE., you can reach me at david at linuxcrazy dot com, or on freenode irc, channel #linuxcrazy.

It got me to thinking about all the new Linux users, that with the ease of installation with distros such as Ubuntu I can see this as really working and it is really easy to set up.
