Website of Polytechnic University of Madrid Among the New Victims of Antivirus 2008 (ANTIVIRUS-SCANONLINE.COM) Exploitation
TOKYO (MacHouse) - For the past 24 hours, there have been a few new additions to the victim’s list of antivirus-scanonline.com exploitation. One is the website at www.mnemosyne.asso.fr. Lehigh University once appeared to have swept all malicious files out, but they have fallen a victim again. Another new comer to the victim’s list is Polytechnic University of Madrid (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid). (Screenshot 01 shows the index page of University’s website.) Its Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (Laboratorio de Inteligencia Artificial) has a website at http://www.lia.upm.es. (See Screenshot 02.) A cyber criminal organization behind the ongoing Antivirus 2008 exploitation has installed ill files so that they could redirect innocent Internet users to the fake anti-virus scan website hosted at antivirus-scanonline.com.

The story is the same. If one accesses a wrong URL hosted at the website of Polytechnic University of Madrid’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, he or she can be redirected to the fake anti-virus scan website at antivirus-scanonline.com. (See Screenshot 03) That’s where a Trojan horse derivative awaits innocent Internet users.
