Super Bowl Virus Spreads

And appears to have been active since Nov.

This is a follow up to the great article posted on the Front page of Wincustomize "Super Bowl Related Site Hacked" - by Island Dog

Various websites ranging from health care to government sites have been hacked to host the same JavaScript. Many of these sites have been cleaned but the link I have included shows some that have not.

The JavaScript will redirect your browser to a second web server based in China where the Trojan Horse will be installed.

Microsoft has supplied patches for this Critical vulnerability in both April & January

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-014 & Microsoft Security Bulletin MS07-004

What's also interesting is that this has been detected as far back as Nov/2006

I only come to a few sites on my computer and I have luckily never had a virus yet...wish I could go to the Court house for research and say that.
