[These Viruses mail links to dissident websites, including Altermedia. We thinks that this is wrong and we have nothing to do with it. The extra traffic we got because of that virus, almost brought our server down. The people who come to our site because of that virus, don't come because they were looking for some specific info they found on Altermedia, but because they want to know who is spaming them.

For those reasons, we first believed that the Spam was done by enemies of free speech. Now I am inclined to think that these spamers are people who really wanted to get a message through in a country where thought criminals can get a jail sentences of up to 5 years.

Isn't it ironic that in a country which was « liberated » by the US and its allies, just like Iraq, more than 60 years ago, which is still under US/Zionist occupation; people are so desperate because of the lack of freedom, that they do such things as to write viruses which send Spam in order to express their opinion while having a chance of escaping jail?!]

Hackers have used spamming software to distribute thousands of copies of a new Trojan. Email filtering firm MessageLabs alone has intercepted more than 4,000 copies of the Demonize-T Trojan over the last 24 hours.

Demonize-T is a multi-stage Trojan that uses an object data exploit in Internet Explorer (patch here) to download and execute an encoded visual basic script from a website. The Trojan then creates an executable file which appears to download a malicious program from the same website as the original script. Early analysis suggests Demonize-T is similar to previous attacks where malicious code has been used to install key loggers and password stealers.
