Posted: Tue Sep 20, 2005 4:33 pm Post subject: A colleague has some virus trouble |
|
|
One of my colleagues asked me if I can post this here, he cannot speak english. His username is DAD_Lutz. He visits our site only for some arcade games and says he got a trojan horse two times from our site
He can't remember which game he was playing the first time, but it was GoldMiner the second time. He enabled his dial up connection and visited no other site than ours and a file named " .exe" (space-dot-exe) was installed on his pc. An antivirus software recognized this file as "W32/Sdbot.worm.gen.by"
I can't believe this but I post it here because I know my colleague is some kind of hardware and software guru and he knows what he's talking about, even if he cannot speak english. |

Well, it's hardly impossible as these are official flash games. Other than that, I have played all games myself and I got a lot of security stuff on my network and I've never seen that there is a virus/trojan.
I've played goldminer myself and never had a problem though  |

I said I cannot believe it too that he catches the virus from our site but he's convinced of that I tell him what you wrote and see what he thinks about it. |

Hmmm, well, tell him to update his browser, it shouldnt be allowing Flash to install software!!
Switch on his Firewall, switch on Antivirus, and omg, dont ever let a website install without permission! Firefox 1.0.6, 1.7.x or IE 6.028 minimum |
