Fake web site

If you get an email pointing you to an "NFL web site", don't click the link. It is yet another way to get Storm on to your computer. See below.

 

Websense Security Labs has received several reports of a new Web site that is being distributed in spam that is being sent out by those running the Storm attacks.

 

This site poses as an NFL Web site and includes statistics from last weeks games. The statistics are from last week's games and appear to be accurate. No exploit is on the site itself. However, when users click any of the URLs, they are prompted to download and run a file called "nflseasontracker.com." This file contains the Storm payload code.

 

The site was up and running the time of this alert.

 

Sample email text:

 

Get on top of tonight's game with your FREE NFL Season tracker!
