Thanks for the heads-up Chuck. Everyone should keep their systems patched, up to date, and use a firewall. My wife came close to being fooled by a paypal phishing scam. The bad guys are getting smarter.

The reality is that the North Korean internet has very limited connectivity to the outside world. They do not want anyone , government trained computer specialists included, finding out what the outside world really is.

The last big "hacker attack by the North Koreans" against some South Korean banks turned out to be that they were running a free version of AVG and had not updated it in months and they caught a virus when an employee was surfing porn on company time and it spread throughout the network.
