Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: Surelyfunke on 2006 November 28, 17:51:58 This time at a site named Promiscuous Angel.
Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: jesserocket on 2006 November 28, 17:59:53 That's a hilarious name for a site. :D
Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: migamoo on 2006 November 28, 18:00:38 Never heard of the site, and I don't think I want to go there.
Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: Feverish on 2006 November 28, 19:36:56 Son of a _____!
I think I went there yesterday! :? Thanks for telling me. Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: wicked_one on 2006 November 28, 20:37:36 apparently google has never heard of it either migamoo. it only shows up when its mentioned on other sites.
Code: http://www.promiscuous-angel.de.vu/ I'm guessing it's another trojan sent by ads? I don't see any ads so I don't know. they note noukie as a custom content credit yet spell the url wrong so anybody who would want to go there would have to google her (none of the credit links are clickable anyways--i think that was done intentionally) anyways i remember going to the site once before...when it first opened and bines had featured it...they had something up about how this was their new site and I can't remember what their old site was...so even if you haven't been to this particular site you probably went to their old one...it probably had a weird name too lol Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: caryse on 2006 November 28, 23:25:15 Which anti-virus software are you using? Do you recall the name of the trojan that your AV software reported? Do you know if it came from a pop-up or if it was in a file you downloaded?
C. Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: Surelyfunke on 2006 November 29, 04:01:00 I didn't get a trojan. I'm just reporting.
Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: migamoo on 2006 November 29, 04:44:36 I went, didn't get anything.
Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: Amy on 2006 November 29, 06:10:16 I went and I got the trojan from pop-ups. It was in my temporary internet files. I think the other site was lifestyle-sims2.de.vu or something like that (just guessing this one). Anyway I got a trojan there too (the same one). So I download The Cleaner, and I'm seriously thinking of downloading a firewall as well.
Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: Surelyfunke on 2006 November 29, 15:26:47 Also, the person from whom I heard it says the trojan is an IEpagespoof. She had both McAfee and Avast running and still got it.
For what it is worth, I use Firefox and managed to dodge the Simchic virus (and all subsequent ones). Title: Wooh, another Trojan Post by: caryse on 2006 November 29, 17:39:35 I too use firefox, with pop-ups disabled.
There are a lot of exploits that target IE specifically, due to the bugginess of it. I don't recommend anyone running IE, ever. heh. C.

There are a lot of exploits that target IE specifically, due to the bugginess of it. I don't recommend anyone running IE, ever. heh. C. I agree. I almost never use IE unless I really have to, and if I do I always run a scan afterwards. Firefox is so much safer and now I never get any popups. Yea! I'm also leery of where I visit online. I know I'm overly cautious but that's because about 2 years ago I was hit with 4 trojans after downloading a program for my Sim's game which was a bitch to get rid of. They were really ugly ones too :evil: . Took me awhile to search them out. Thanks for the warning . |
