More Greeting Card Malware
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
I was just checking my mail at remove-malware.com and someone was nice enough to send me e-card malware! I think I'm going to see what the .exe does in one of my clean virtual machines. I had 3 clients this week that opened this e-card.exe file. They didn't get a cute card, instead that got XP AntiVirus 2008, Misc Droppers and a Rootkit.
Never ever open any e-card, 90% of them are tricks.

So - question is - can 53 years old lady be involved in producing a spyware or is she a victim?
I get like eight of those every day,some say You Have recieved an ecard, some say Subscriber, you have been invited to a reunion, all the same…
Very common spam. Too many people fall for it…very sad.
