What is ELF:DDoS-Y?
ELF:DDoS-Y is a trojan that comes hidden in malicious programs. Once you install the source (carrier) program, this trojan attempts to gain "root" access (administrator level access) to your computer without your knowledge.

Trojans like ELF:DDoS-Y are difficult to detect because they hide themselves by integrating into the operating system. Once it infects your computer, ELF:DDoS-Y executes each time your computer boots and attempts to download and install other malicious files. Upon successful execution, it deletes the source program, making it more difficult to detect.

Hi Pondus,

Thanks for the confirmation and elaboration. This shows for all and everyone, how over what short time period malware is being spread.
Overdue malware, staying on longer than a 1.000 hrs is really a rare beast. The types of malware that are persistent and (inter)related, are all variations on earlier patterns.
The malcreant like the devil always takes to the same methods and routines to do evil.

So keeping the right attitudes and online behavior will mean one may be less susceptible to malware infections.
