Title: New worm uses YouTube
Post by: Frands on June 15, 2007, 07:06:26 AM
Hi, :)

QuoteA new worm, SpreadBanker.A, uses a YouTube video to trick users and spread, according to PandaLabs. The worm has two components. When the user runs the first of these, it connects to the YouTube page and displays a video. The problem is that at the same time it is downloading the second part of the worm.
