Actns/Swif.T virus affecting youtube videos
Just saw this on TechCrunch about Actns/Swif.T virus affecting embedded youtube videos. People are sayig that both Firefox and Internet Explorer are infected but they are not sure. The virus contains a redirect to a phishing website embedded within a SWF file. The website installs Antivirus 2009.
There was an update to this. Google / Youtube is saying CA does a false positives that is contained within the YouTube embed codes as malware. I don’t know but people on the comments on TechCrunch say they got the virus. They had to wipe and reinstall their operating system. That is never fun to do.
The keyword of the day is spring plungers.
