Erin Andrews peephole footage spreads Trojan
,----[ Quote ]
| Surfers who visit the malicious sites are exposed to either the Jahlav-C
| Trojan horse on Macs, or the FakeAV-AY Trojan for Windows. In both cases,
| muck-fixated punters are tricked into downloading malware that poses as a
| video player supposedly needed to view footage of Andrews in her birthday
| suit. Code running on the hacker-controlled websites determines which strain
| of malware is offered up to visitors.
