I operate an IIS web server and some visitors have reported this malware
Apperantly, it is a new virus, reported only by Sophos and only since october 30th

Does anyone know something about it ? (and what to do)
Avast admin: are you aware ?
Many thanks

Hello aramyus,
The best possible defense against this is running Firefox with the NoScript extension.

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.
Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
