New Trojans Target Microsoft Windows
Filed in: Microsoft, Security — January 13th, 2005
Security software supplier Panda Software has reported the appearance of two new Trojans which take advantage of the digital rights management protection offered by new versions of Microsoft’s Windows Media Player.
The Trj/WmvDownloader.A and Trj/WmvDownloader.B Trojans are spreading across P2P networks, such as Kazaa and eMule, in video files, causing users to inadvertently download adware, spyware and viruses.
