Google talk is under suspicion of malware spreading..Some of the best viruses of ‘yahoo messenger’ have started attacking the online chat service of Google which is popularly known as g-talk
This new virus which duplicates the link of your friend in g talk and sends you various links……When you click that link the page will divert into another with a malware content..The moment you reaches this page the virus content in the page will freeze your anti virus software , does certain problems and even makes your computer a machine for future virus downloads.
You will get this virus , like your friend sent it. but, do remember to always think twice before clicking it , g-talk is no longer safe.
First a link of an image file will reach your chat box in the name of a friend, thinking that he actually sent it , we’ll click it.Then that virus will be automatically downloaded into your computer and will start sending the same virus to all your online friends in the name of you (we will not notice it!).
Actually in our chat window in the name of an image file,a link to a ‘zip’ extension or an E.X.E file is appearing.
(eg:-http://srv057.imageshares.info:88/displayphoto009.jpg.zip)
If this virus strike your computer then there will be a festival of messages. a number of messages will appear in your chat box in the name of your friends(eg:- hurrrrey,r u dre,look at my new my space photo etc)
Some of these messages or viruses in this case will frequently “open and close” and makes your system hank.
We can escape from these “fake message malwares through filtering the link using your anti virus program, but even the latest anti-virus soft wares are not noticing these viruses.There is also a chance for your anti-virus to freeze.
So, think twice before clicking a link sent to you by a friend , always make sure they are not ending with ‘.zip’ or ‘.axe’
AND STAY OUT OF TROUBLE……O.K
