Yet another KaZaA/FastTrack worm

23 August 2002 7:57 by Petteri "dRD" Pyyny

According to Kaspersky Labs, there's a yet another worm spreading across the FastTrack network. Worm, dubbed as Duload, distributes itself through KaZaA and has already few variants.

Most of the variants seem to be harmless, but at least one tries to download and install various Trojan horses to user's computer, risking the computer security and opening backdoor for crackers.

More info can be found from Kaspersky's advisory.
