bytes dot com hijacked
« on: January 27, 2013, 07:44:30 AM »
Looks like bytes dot com has been hijacked, it redirects to a russian porn site with some malicious stuff on it. Avast did catch it though, as usual...

OK, thanks.

But it's still hijacked, isn't it?

just tested on a computer with IE and opera..... no redirect

maybe you should take a malware check here....




follow the guide and attach the requested logs.....http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53253.0

AdwCleaner
Malwarebytes

aswMBR




when done a removal specialist will be notified and help you. it may take hours before he arrive so be patient

Edit. Oh, sorry. for some reason part of your message was missing the first time I read it. Strange.

Could be this is a swfobject.registerObject("csSWF", "9.0.115", "expressInstall.swf"); malware with non=patched software (see code line 13)
shockwave flash malware...“Adobe Flash Player 'SWF' File Remote Memory Corruption Vulnerability”
The site gives a conditional redirect to htxp://miscfiles.net/temp/0001/bytescomvir/

Not sure what you mean here - is there something wrong with the video I uploaded?
