Trojan detected
EHM-0654 Murray:
*Many* thanks for that Bruce.
@Everyone: I have now discovered (and with luck blocked) the vector that was being used to apply this malware to the site (MT should look in our private forum for full information).
It shouldn't happen again in the sort of timeframe it did yesterday/today, but just in case I have taken further precautions; a backup of the files that are being replaced each time, so one quick unpack operation will put them back as was...
EHM-1944 Jaap:
Thanks again Murray.
I can enter PP again,however funny is that a Mcafee scan did not find any virus.
EHM-0654 Murray:
Look up the name Bruce reported on McAfee's forum ;)
We're not the first people hit by this malware, and you're not the first McAfee user wondering why it doesn't get detected...
EHM-2198 Didimo:
IVAO got hit some days ago if I remember correctly :( I hope my PC did not get infected. I just ran AdAware and did not detect anything extraordinary (tracking cookies only).
Currently running Norton AV with the updates but I hope it finds nothing. Then again... for what it seems NAV fails miserably at detecting some things. Can anybody recommend a better antivirus?
EHM-0654 Murray:
Personally, I only use NOD32 on my on equipment (thirty day demo available from their website). If you check out AV Comparatives, you discover that Eset NOD32 has won "best of year" two years running. Plus, it's dead light on computer resources, and it's also blindingly fast. Furthermore, it's not tremendously expensive for home use (£27 per year)
And before anyone finds out "by accident" and thinks there's sommat dodgy going on, yes, the company my mate David and I run is a NOD32 reseller, but that's mostly because we were both using it before we started the company and thought reselling would be a nice way of getting it cheaply (and it is ;D)
