Return of AVG's LinkScanner

When AVG Technologies slurped up Exploit Prevention Labs, it rolled the standalone LinkScanner security app into its popular antivirus offerings. While the newfound ability to rate search results and live Web pages for safety ratings lent AVG products some extra relevancy and clout, not everyone wants to download a full-blown security app just to get a warning or go-ahead to search a Web site.

Thankfully, AVG Technologies has seen the error of its bundling-only ways, and has rereleased LinkScanner as a free, standalone add-on for Firefox or Internet Explorer once again. This is particularly sanguine news for those who noted performance bungles when using rival software like McAfee SiteAdvisor (for Firefox and IE).

Those well-versed in the LinkScanner of yore won't see too many changes in the new LinkScanner 8.5. The usual red, yellow, and green flags emerge on Google and Yahoo search results, and on the Web page itself, to tip you off if the page in question might contain harmful or seedy elements.

We're glad to see LinkScanner back on its own, and after you read up on this handy security scout, you might be, too.

Virus: Win32:Banker [Trojan Horse]

Win32:Banker is a family of Trojans capable of monitoring user activity and stealing private information. Win32:Banker monitors user’s internet access. If certain websites (banking, payment system) are visited, Win32:Banker will log user’s activity. Win32:Banker will than send all the stolen details to the attacker.

Description

Win32:Banker is a family of Trojans capable of stealing private information such as account numbers, passwords and banking credentials. Many variants can wait in the background and monitor user's internet activity. A logging procedure starts when a certain website is accessed, or if the address of an accessed website contains certain words. Many variants may supplement legitimate banking or payment system websites to get user details.

After getting the user details, Win32:Banker will send all the information to the attacker. Data can be sent to the attacker’s e-mail, can be uploaded to the attacker’s FTP server or can be submitted to the attacker’s website.

Win32:Banker may be downloaded by a user or can be received via email, but usually it is downloaded by other Trojan-Downloaders. When Win32:Banker is launched, it may copy itself to various folders such as %WINDOWS% or %SYSTEM%. Many variants set themselves to run each time Windows starts by creating the corresponding registry entries.

Most known variants target the users of Brazilian banks. These variants may be distributed in executables with names containing the word "cartao" ("card" in English).

If a user’s computer is infected with Win32:Banker, it is recommended to change the logging details of user’s bank account.

FREE ANTI VIRUS: Ansav +EA 2.0.26 Beta / 1.9.3

This antivirus helps you to identify, thwart and eliminate computer viruses and other malicious software.

Ansav is a free antivirus utility designed to identify, thwart and eliminate computer viruses and other malicious software (malware)

ANSAV, abbreviation from An's AntiVirus, is an application that runs on Windows XP and was made especially to handle various mallware like virus

, Trojan and Spyware.

This is not a commercial Antivirus, ANSAV was only designed as portable software and can be undertaken without needing the installation, because ANSA V is not resident and only treats.

At this time ANSAV could have detected various newest local virus (Indonesia Viruses) and several foreign viruses that often circulated in Indonesia, but ANSAV cannot be relied on as personal Antivirus because there are quite a few viruses that could be detected by other Antivirus softwares and were not detected by ANSAV. This was caused by the limitations of the Antivirus database (the virus definition signature)

ANSAV was developed for Indonesian purpose (local support only) although it can detect several foreign viruses, therefore your role is to always send the sample of the newest virus that still could not be detected by ANSAV, so that ANSAV would become your main weapon to eradicate the virus, especially the local virus.

Ansav contains the definitions of more than 776 viruses.
