Same core as the rest of the Agent line, cover off of a Sure Fire though.

Is it just me or has BBR.com been lagging something fierce? It takes forever for my machine to load a page and the memeory usage for my browser goes up 60mb+ everytime I open any page there.

Who knows if 123 got hacked or what, but if you happen to see a blue background with bug crawling around and a lame, broken English popup telling you that you are infected with some sort of fictitious malware you should download a free program call Spybot from download.com and run it in safe mode.

To toot my own horn, I'm a Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator on Windows Server 2003, Microsoft Certified Desktop Technician, and a Microsoft Certified Professional that works for a DoD subcontractor, not some "Geek Dog" department that swindles home computer users, so Iâ€™m not crazy or dreaming this up. I tried the link again after cleaning my system, and I got the same exact spyware payload transferred onto my test machine. I'm guessing that patched versions of IE and Firefox will do a better job of preventing this, but I really don't feel like testing this hypothesis on my main system since I don't feel like loading it up with garbage. Click at your own risk is all I will say because God only knows how secure that review site really is. If anyone is interested, here's what was found on my system with AVG and Spybot.

Detected by AVG Antivirus:

Trojan Horse SHeur.BHAL

c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\temp\vjTu.exe

Detected by Spybot:

SmitFraud-C.gp

c:\windows\system32\ctfmona.exe
c:\windows\system32\ctfmonb.bmp

There was a registry key as well, but I forgot to write it down. Spybot will take care of it though.

Sorry about the thread hijack, but I figure it's better than a system hijack.

This is exactly how this sie was acting last week when all the hacking was attempted here.

Post by: JessN16 on May 17, 2008, 10:41:28 PM: I have the newest Firefox version and I kept getting runaway scripts all last night while trying to look up another ball. It literally took five minutes for me to load a page. The malware must not have gotten in, however, because I ran a virus scan this morning and came up clean. The site is now running fine for me.

Anyway, its just another version of the Secret Agent.

Incorrect. The Power Agent has no particle. This Secret is Hybrid LT. This is just hybrid. Big difference.

Just trying to get the info straight.
