Subject: [Full-disclosure] Financial firms warned of Qaeda cyber attack

"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. government warned American private financial services on Thursday of an al Qaeda call 
for a cyber attack against online stock trading and banking Web sites beginning on Friday, a source said."

Reportedly DHS confirmed an alert had been distributed but said there was no reason to believe the threat was credible.
