Wallon Worm Deceives Users

Wallon Worm Deceives Users

Antivirus experts are warning users about a new worm called Wallon that uses deceptive Web links to Yahoo.com to trick users into downloading malicious programs.

Wallon first appeared last Friday and spreads in e-mail messages. Antivirus companies report increased instances of the worm this week, and say users could be tricked by its e-mail messages, which do not contain virus-infected file attachments.

This flaw was patched long ago so hopefully its damage will be minimal. -KingFish
