Trojano-169 in .xpi-File
« on: June 23, 2004, 07:56:38 PM »
Surfing in the Web with Mozilla (1.7, software installation disabled) a download-dialog appeared when entering a web page:
"sbc_netscape.xpi"

I knew this is propably a bad guy, downloaded it on my hard-disk --> no alarm.  Scanning the file with right-click and "scan with avast" said, that this guy is a "Trojano-169".

Of course no alarm with on-access-scanner, i thought, because ".xpi" is not an extension listed in the standard shield. So I added XPI as additional extension, but no effect. I can download the guy again and again ... no alarm.

Kaspersky-Online-Scanner says:

* Zu überprüfende Datei:   sbc_netscape.xpi
* sbc_netscape.xpi Archive: ZIP
* sbc_netscape.xpi/install.js Ok
* sbc_netscape.xpi/sbc_netscape.exe Infiziert: TrojanSpy.Win32.Briss.h

How could I make AVAST! detecting this guy upon download?

I am using AVAST! Home (4.1.418, VDB 0426-0, WinXP)
 ???

Sorry, I had a mistake in my post.

The "on-demand"-Scanner of AVAST! found it, but not the "on-access". I modified it now in the original post.
