Firefox Users Beware

Firefox users beware ... Zango and Trojan.Codec malware pushers want your browser ...
landing on "sex(dot)stylishvideo(dot)com" the viewer is presented with the following ...

The bogus message that you need to install "Media Codec" is a typical Trojan.Zlob infection,

Trojan-Downloader.Zlob.Media-Codec often silently downloads and installs rogue security programs such as SpywareQuake, SpyFalcon and WinAntivirusPro, but may install other malware as well. Some variants of Trojan-Downloader.Zlob.Media-Codec have backdoor functionality, giving a remote attacker the ability to control and use the infected machine for malicious purposes

But what I find interesting is the other message in the 2nd highlighted section - "Opera & Firefox Users - Click Here" ... well that's the first time I've seen that. So what happens when you click the link ... Oh my! several different Trojan.Codec or Trojan.Zlob will whack you. Then for good measure you get prompted by Zango too ...

 

I thought Zango said they were cleaning up their act, yeah I know, they have said that before. But yet we still see them on hard-core adult sites in the same company as known malware ... just more lies!
