World Of Warcraft: Keylogger Found at UI Mod Site

| 20 Dec 2006 18:01

If you visited ui.worldofwar.net in the last few days you might want to scan your hard drive with the latest antivirus definitions. We have been informed that at this time the key logger was removed from the ui.worldofwar.net homepage.

The key logger itself was in an iframe embedded from an ad that was running on their site

The key logger planted a file called ntldr.exe on your C: drive There is however ntldr.dll please do not get them confused. You need the ntldr.dll to boot your PC to a desktop. A great free online scanner can be located at Trend Micro

UPDATE:

It looks like the mod/add-on called Stats Sniffer was the culprit. Somehow the mod author was able to put an IFrame into StatsSniffer add-on title. As of right now the mod called StatsSniffer was removed from the site.

Always remember to update your Antivirus, Browser and Operating System weekly.
