Some new fake codec sites

[muckshifter]

Hot and fresh, serving Zlob trojans:

ebwmanufacture(dot)com
dmqfirm(dot)com
ictprivate(dot)com

​

Even though these sites usually show a 403 error, they are serving Zlobs ... this is now fairly standard practice for Zlob sites now ... show a 403 on the main page, but serve malware off of a subdirectory.


For example, one link that actually downloads malware would be something like ebwmanufacture(dot)com/download(dot)php?id=4082.


don’t go to these sites
unless you want to infect yourself with malware

I recently downloaded around a dozen different pieces of free software which when used together enabled a user to convert DVD to DivX. The links were given from a guide published at another site.

One of the codec packs contained a trojan.

I found this out when I transferred the folder containing all the software from one hard drive to another, Antivir warned me.

So, there ya go, another warning, kinda related.
