A Cybercrime Hub Reinvents Itself
Written by Jart Armin9/1/2009

A cybercriminal hub is sending out DNS-changing Trojans, false ads, and fake virus infection warnings via a huge network of servers across numerous data centers worldwide, according to an excellent report from Trend Micro.

Via this network, just one DNS-changing Trojan redirected more than 1.8 million unique IP addresses internationally in July 2009 alone.
