Hi malware fighters,

A new kind malcoded adware, rather malware, may transform your laptop into a Wifi router to function as a laptop access point, the victim does not see the launched ads on every HTML page and also on YouTube. It is too easy to call this a normal "man in the middle attack, we certainly will hear more about "Typhoid adware"....http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~aycock/papers/eicar10.pdf

Hi malware fighters,

Google Analytics harbours new malicious script!

On a number of hacked websites eSoft found Google Analytics abused to harbour malicious scripts. Used JavaScript code normally used the Google domain, bur during decoding of the script a non-functioning 'sr tag' is being used, directing to a functioning 'sr tag' with a malicious script on another domain. Analyzing these websites critically look at theGoogle Analytics code, please....http://threatcenter.blogspot.com/2010/06/alert-to-web-security-researchers.html

Linux trojan raises malware concerns
A backdoor Trojan discovered in a popular Linux download illustrates that the OS is not impervious.

Hi malware fighters,

The XP hole found up by Google is now actively being abused, so apply the FixIt:
