MySpace Worm Spread through QuickTime

Websense reports that a QuickTime is spreading worm through the insanely popular Social Networking Site, MySpace. The worm is associate with a QuickTime video which triggers a javascript when viewed on Internet Explorer. This worm will change links within the infected user’s profile and points towards phising sites. Viewing videos on these profiles will infect the other profiles also. Infected profiles can be easily detected as navigation menu has been modified from the standard one.

With lots of people addicted towards MySpace, lots of Malware developers are trying to target MySpace.
