New Malware Infections (Virus?)

February 4th, 2010

There is a new type of infection happening that even has some of the best anti-virus companies stumped. Recently, it was found that Virus and Malware writers are getting more sneaky on how they infect you.

They are specifically targeting Google users. Recently, it was found that you could get infected simply by looking through Google Images. On top of this, other sites only infect you if you come from Google. This means, if you type the web address directly, you don’t get infected.

Very sneaky stuff indeed. This makes it harder to clean the infection, as the website owner usually goes directly to the website to check the problem directly.

Be careful out there, it’s getting more dangerous.
