Windows 7 RC contain Trojan

Pirated copies of Windows 7 Release Candidate (RC) on file-sharing sites contain malware, according to users who have downloaded the upgrade.

Windows 7 RC, which Microsoft Corp. will officialy launch today, leaked two weeks ago, with copies first appearing on BitTorrent tracking sites on April 24.

Some of the pirated builds include a Trojan horse, numerous users said in message forums and in comments on BitTorrent sites such as Mininova.org.

"Just a warning for anyone downloading the new RC builds of windows 7. Quiet [sic] a lot of the downloads have a trojan inbedded [sic] in the setup EXE," said someone identified as Frank Fontaine on a Neowin.net discussion thread. "The Setup EXE is actually a container, it appears to be a self-extracting EXE. There are 2 files inside, Setup.exe and codec.exe."

Fontaine's antivirus software identified the "codec.exe" file as a generic Trojan.

"Suspicious codec.exe!" reported someone labeled as "UltimateGTR" on Mininova, commenting on one of the 32-bit builds.

Another Mininova commenter, "WuNgUn," identified the malware as the "Falder" Trojan, which downloads fake security software, dubbed "scareware," to PCs and installs a rootkit to hide from legitimate antivirus products.

AutoRun offers no chance to worms with Windows 7

Microsoft Windows 7 has included autorun function to protect your pc from Worm. You no need to install anti-virus to extra protection.

The continuing circulation of the Conficker worm has prompted Microsoft to make changes to the AutoRun function in the Windows 7 release candidate, due for release tomorrow. As well as exploiting vulnerabilities in Windows and guessing simple passwords, Conficker also penetrates computers by using the Windows AutoRun function, which allows programs to be run automatically when a USB flash drive is connected or CD inserted.

Conficker programmers have also taken into account the behaviour of AutoRun under Vista, where the AutoRun function requires confirmation from the user. After connecting an infected USB flash drive, the AutoRun dialogue box shows a fake icon to fool users into thinking that clicking on it will open a folder. Instead, it runs the worm. Suspicions should be raised by the apparent duplication of the menu item for opening the folder, but nevertheless this trick has clearly been, and remains, fairly effective.

To stop users from falling into this trap in future, Microsoft has completely removed the option of running a program from the dialogue box for writeable media such as USB sticks, memory cards and external drives. The change does not, however, apply to CDs and DVDs. Testing will be required to determine what this means for U3 USB drives, which emulate a CD-ROM.

Conficker Computer Virus Poses New Threat

The Conficker worm computer virus updated itself late Wednesday, bringing a new threat to the millions of PCs currently infected by it.

The discovery was made by Internet security company Trend Micro, who stated in a press release that the ybercriminals behind the notorious Conficker worm may finally be gearing up for more serious attacks.ԍ

As many as 12 million computers could be infected by the worm. Microsoft is offering a $250,000 bounty for its creator.

The worm can be used to steal data from computers. It can also control infected computers to be used in what is called a otnet.The army of computers in the botnet can then be used by a hacker to launch cyberattacks against anything from Web sites to government computer networks.

Such an attack was launched against the U.S. Pentagon in 2007 by Chinese hackers. The Pentagon was forced to temporarily shut down its network and lost an unknown amount of information.

The activation of the Conficker worm came the same day (Wednesday) as reports of cyber spies infiltrating the U.S. power grid. The Wall Street Journal reported that Chinese and Russian spies were behind it, leaving software in the system that could shut down the U.S. electric grid.

Canadian researchers also discovered late last month the Chinese ԇhostNetԗa spyware system that is being used to monitor and steal documents from 1,295 computers in 103 countries. Among their targets were the Dalai Lama, the media, and hundreds of government and private offices.

Whether the Conficker worm has any connection to the other attacks is yet to be known.

On Oct. 26, 2008, just three days after the discovery of the worm was announced by Microsoft, Chinese hackers created a toolkit that would allow anyone to exploit the system gap. The kit was originally sold for $37.80 but was later made available for free download.

The surprisingly rapid spread of the Conficker worm is attributed to its ability to pass between computers on USB memory sticks. It is also able to invade computer networks. The worm spreads through vulnerabilities in Microsoftӳ operating system, Windowsءlthough an update is now available to repair the vulnerabilities.

The update of the worm was originally suspected to be taking place on April 1. According to Trend Micro the new variant of the worm, known as WORM_DOWNAD.E, runs using a random file name and random service name. It updated itself through P2P communications. The new file was discovered in the Windows Temp folder.

Its effects are yet to be known.

Strangely, according to a BBC report, researchers from the Symantec internet security company said the new update has instructions for the worm to remove virus itself on May 3, 2009, yet a gap in the machine will remain open so that its creators can still control the compromised PC
