Not sure where exactly to post this.. a mod can move it if they can find a better place for it, I thought it best be put here since people in this section use CarDomain to post pictures and such of their ride...
CarDomain's current Ad company is currently costing advertisments for a know Spyware/Virus program, WinAntivirus and its variants on its web site.This program when installed will infect your computer with some version of WinAntivirus, or it's variants known as WinAntispyware, WinAntivirus 2007, and will also place known trojan viruses that are know to be assosiated with this spyware program called Vundu, Virtumundu, Virtumund on Trojan.Downloader on the system.
I figure I'd put my use a a computer tech to warn everyone on the forum about it. What happens, when you're browsing their site, suddenly your Firefox or IE window will disapear and a popup, that doesn't have a real "X" window so you can close it, rather an image of an "X" image that when you click it, it will automatically go through and install this spyware on your machine. To stop it before you get infected, DO NOT CLICK ON IT AT ALL. Instead press CTRL-ALT-DEL to bring up Task Manager, and go to the process tab. If you are using Internet Explorer, look for any and all IEXPLORE.EXE or iexplore.exe in this list, and hit END PROCESS in the lower right. If you are using FireFox, look for firefox.exe and do the same. Once this finishes, CLEAR ALL TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES. To do this, go Start, Settings, then Control Pannel. Double click on Internet properties then, for IE6 and lower,click Clear Cookies, Clear History and When you click on Clear Temporary Internet files, make sure to check Clear all temporary internet files. For IE7 there's just one button, and check all the boxes. For Firefox users, do that, then, once you open FireFox again, it will ask you if you want to restore your session. CHOOSE CANCEL or NO! Doing so will bring you back where you where, which is not good in this case. Once your in to your homepage, in FireFox go to Tools>Clear Private Data. Then choose all the boxes and hit Clear Private Data now. (Older versons you have to go to Preferences and clear it in there somewhere).
This will keep you safe... but I've emailed the site on two occasions on the past week telling of this, but they're still there.
I work as a tech on a workbench, I'm actually at work right now, and I clean this stuff out of computers on a daily basis. Every infections a bit different.. but you are infected, PM me and I'll help you clear it and sends you some tools I have that get rid of the sucker. I only browse CarDomain now on my Laptop that's running Kubuntu... so I'm not prone to getting any of those icky spyware programs from sites like that.
