Security Savvy on Valentine's Day - A Survey

Valentine’s Day is here, and malware authors are at it again. Take this short Valentine Day Spam Survey and download the report – Valentine’s Day is Here Again – Be Warned.

For the 2009 Valentine’s Day, Waledac is doing the rounds. Once you open the URL in the spam mail, you’d be redirected to a site with love graphics on the Valentine Theme. You would then be enticed to download a Valentine kit to prepare a present for a loved one, which installs in the PC as the new Waledac variant.

Infected machines send an alert back to a host machine, providing location and other information about your now infected machine, and attempt to find other IP addresses to continue spreading. Waledac of 2009 is commonly dubbed as the new Storm of 2009 – but it hasn’t reached the same level and size as Storm did in 2008.

The full report is free for download once you complete the survey. Thank you in advance for filling the survey.
