Title: Worm not yet detected by avast
Post by: JeanC on October 13, 2008, 11:00:57 AM

Hello,

I recently had some msn worm/virus.

Every few minutes it displayed the text below in a chat window. PLEASE DON'T CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW

---------------
Hi, ich habe letztens ein paar Seiten gesucht, die kostenlos Klingeltöne, Logos und Games aufs Handy schickt. Download hXXp://sie7ben.si.ohost.de/mufa.xxx
---------------

Over in the msgplus forums there is a thread about this one. One guy submitted this virus to some antivirus labs and it seems some antivirus companies already have responded.
This is that thread http://www.msghelp.net/showthread.php?tid=86541&pid=932186#pid932186

Could avast please also look into this?

Thanks.

Edit, that link was copied from my first post in the other forum, it was modified on that forum, it's really mufa.exe, not mufa.xxx

Thanks for helping improving the detection.
Hope they take a look soon.

Yeah, it's not a good idea post live links to malware.
