European Cup ticket comes with Trojan

Fri, 28 March 2008

Tettnang, 28 March 2008 – As was the case for the World Cup, tickets for the European Cup football championship are also in great demand. However, those using the Internet ticket seller site euroticketshop.com are infected with malware without their knowledge. A script with the name "buy_ticket.aspx" is opened and a malicious JavaScript code is run. The Trojan "TR/Dldr.Small.hzj" is installed on the computer of the affected user. With the current VDF, Avira AntiVir VDF detects both the Trojan and the malicious JavaScript as  "JS/Dldr.Remora.WA".
