Dust.Page.US Spyware Worm spreads, but You Can Block It
Date Posted: March 11, 2005 11:06 AM
Author: Mel Beckman
Security Alert! A new worm is afoot, tentatively called the dust.page.us worm because it downloads and installs spyware on victim computers from the site of the same name. Blocking traffic to the dust.page.us site appears to stop the virus from successfully infecting new systems. The IP addresses associated with this name are subject to change, however, so some cleverness is required to block access to it.
