The number of computer viruses is increasing at a shocking rate. In 2003, 7 new viruses were unleashed each day. In 2004, more than 10,000 new viruses and their variants were identified. These new viruses include viruses, worms and Trojan horses and they attack the computer in many different ways. Some cause damage to the boot sector, hardware, software or data files. Some create security leaks in the system. Others may use the computer to spread spam e-mails.

Viruses, worms and Trojan horses also spread by different means. Viruses are usually transferred from one computer to another by sharing infected files or e-mail attachments. Worms replicate and spread by e-mail programs. Trojan horses are often downloaded and run by computer users who do not know the true nature of these programs.

Does a computer require Antivirus Software?

The need for antivirus software occurs when your computer is connected to internet or while you use external devices like CD, DVD, Memory Card or USB flash drives.  This is because most of the computer viruses infect the PC when the pc is connected to the internet and without the users knowledge some viruses, worms or Trojans get in to the PC, while surfing some website which might not be appropriate. Also when a user gets USB, CD or any other external storage device and uses in his PC, and when the other pc has got infected, and the storage device is connected to the uninfected pc, the chances of computer virus infecting the good pc is high. So in order to prevent from such kind of miscelleous computer viruses infection, it’s always better to use an best Antivirus Software which will prevent the PC from infection and defends the existing viruses in the pc.

As the technology grows, the anti-social elements also grow along with their technology to create and spread new virus, worms, Trojans, spywares and other malware which can infect your pc and transmit your confidential information to the third parties. (Third parties in techno term we mean the phishers and hackers (online Thieves)). These phishers once they get access to your private data not only steal your online digital assets and money, but also send emails from your email id to your friends, relatives, customers and other contacts in your address book to install spywares and key loggers  to start spoofing and stealing their confidential information as well.

So to prevent such kind of infections and to secure your confidential and personal information its recommended to use a good antivirus software with antispyware, anti spam features included in it.

Spyware Antivirus – How it affects and what is at Risk

What is Spyware or Spyware Anti-Virus, and why it is important to have your computer scanned and updated with Spyware Antivirus software. With the rise of internet more and more users came on internet and gave rise to e-commerce benefiting users and commerce industry. With this it created problems related to user profiling and in some cases malicious attempts to intercept login and passwords for financial institutions. The word Spyware surfaced in mid 1990, right before dot com boom, it saw its use only when dot com boom created tons of companies on net and millions of user got hooked to internet.

As said in the beginning, the purpose ranges from recording users liking for sites, where he shops, on which site he spends more time. All these parameters will help Internet marketers in targeting ads to his/her interest. Worst of all such information can be used or accessed by phishing people, who are after people’s financial details, either they sell information to third parties or simply use themselves. This is the most dangerous attempt on your computer you can have.

To spare users from onslaught of advertising agency and phisers, lot of companies have come up with Spyware Antivirus or Spyware Anti-Virus products protecting them from malicious attack. Infect there is whole Spyware Antivirus industry operating for internet users.

<b>What Damage Spyware can Cause? – Symptoms</b>

You are receiving bounced e-mails in high volume, good chances of trojan spam ware running show in your computer. You have downloaded music online Your system is extremely slow, it is using your PC’s resources, internet bandwidth, modify, delete files, or goes after window registry to change important window programs. You are being bombarded by those horrible popup ads. Have you noticed your homepage keeps changing? Even when your computer offline, your external modem shows LCD light blinking for data transfer. Malicious attempt to record your keystrokes, sell your financial details to others. They can capture your credit card details or your personal information such as SSN (Social Security Number), birthrate, address etc that can be used to steel identity of person.

THE GAME GOES ON: AN ANALYSIS OF MODERN SPAM TECHNIQUES

Spam is perhaps one of the most rapidly changing forms of communication we see today. The spammers’ methods of evading detection evolve constantly, differing significantly now from what was employed even in the recent past.

Content-based filtering – still a necessary part of any broad and proactive anti-spam solution – is by no means immune from their efforts. Whether based on signatures, URL blocking or heuristic rules, these filters are still sometimes thwarted by sophisticated HTML- and CSS-based obfuscation methods, or by placing the entire content of the message in randomized attached images.

Spammers also tirelessly seek loopholes in domain name registration systems that allow them to avoid pre-emptive detection, and in the security measures of free web-hosting providers so they can mass-register thousands of new home pages every day.

The paper will provide an analysis of many modern anti-anti-spam techniques, accompanied by statistical reports and real-life examples. It will also outline some possible approaches to combat these often highly effective and thus increasingly ‘popular’ spam techniques.

Although Internet spamming has been with us since as early as 1978 it first became more than a minor annoyance around September 1993, when America Online released AOL for Windows and the exponential expansion of the Internet began.

At first, and for years subsequently, Usenet- and then email-based spam was very simple, consisting of unvarying ASCII messages sent from a limited number of IP addresses. Such simple ‘plain text’ spam required correspondingly unsophisticated approaches to blocking it. Content-based techniques such as keyword scanning and straightforward hashes (or ‘signatures’) over the message body were very effective, and at the connection level IP blocklist pioneers such as Spamhaus and MAPS helped turn spammers away before they could even ring the doorbell.

Since then spammers have developed a variety of methods to bypass the filters, having a counter-countermeasure for every anti-spam technique devised, targeting both connection- and content-level filtering. In the former case, huge networks of compromised home PCs, known as ‘botnets’, are the most well-known. But another trick employed recently (predominantly by so-called ‘Nigerian’ scammers) is effective not only against IP blocklists but also such emerging technologies as DomainKeys and SPF/Sender-ID. In this particular example the trick exploits a Yahoo! Mail service allowing new customers to inform their contacts of their new Yahoo! email address. The scammer pastes a big list of target email addresses, writes his plea for assistance in the ‘personal message’ area of the form (see Figure 1), passes the CAPTCHA (‘Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart’) test, and his email is dispatched from Yahoo!’s mail servers complete with valid SPF and DomainKeys information. Note that, while Yahoo! Mail claims to restrict the personal message to 100 characters, emails arriving on SophosLabs’ spam traps at the time of writing indicate that the scammers have discovered a way to greatly exceed this limit. This technique is, of course, of limited utility and (presumably) longevity, but though the proportion of spam sent this way is negligible, this and similar exploits could be a thorn in the side of anti-spam filters relying solely on the connection-level approach.

On the content front, obfuscation still lies at the heart of anti-anti-spam methodology. It’s a well-known fact that given all the tricks spammers use to veil their words, it becomes possible according to one estimation to misspell the name of male enhancement pills in more than 10^21 different ways. (That is, rather appropriately, over one sextillion combinations.) But modern spam has evolved many more sophisticated ways of mentioning the unmentionable.

Take, for example, one of the numerous ‘float tricks’.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) allow block-level elements to be ‘floated’ alongside each other, this functionality being most often employed to implement column-style layouts in web pages. But it also allows spammers to break words into bits, and insert spurious characters into common trigger words, in an attempt to fool filters. Once rendered by the HTML engine, though, those bits are reassembled in the correct order, the spurious additions shunted off to the right-hand margin (see Figures 2 and 3).

Another, albeit rarer, technique is to use the ‘right-to-left override’ feature of Unicode to reverse the order of letters bracketed by special codes. This hides the offending word or phrase from the filter (which sees, for example, ‘argaiV’), but the user sees the letters in the correct order thanks to the Unicode-compliant HTML engine.

But whatever methods spammers use to disguise their true message, most types of spam have an Achilles’ heel: the URL-based call to action. In the majority of English spam a profit can only be made if there’s a link to click. Attacking the URLs contained in spam emails is a very effective technique, and thus spammers have developed ways to attempt to circumvent this approach too.

One method that saw a huge resurgence in the last year is the use of ‘freeweb’ hosting providers to host pages that redirect (often via ‘encrypted’ Javascript) to the spammers’ main sites. Again, this is not a new trick, but now it is common to see one spam campaign use thousands of randomized ‘freeweb’ URLs, rendering URL blocklists far less useful. Naturally, these providers have taken precautionsagainst such abuse of their systems, for the most part by requiring the passing of a CAPTCHA test while signing up for an account, which involves presenting an image containing heavily obfuscated letters and numbers and asking the user to enter the characters into a form.

A recent study, though, shows that when targeted specifically by an attacker most CAPTCHA systems can be solved more often and more accurately by a computer than by a human!

Due to the sheer volume of unique freeweb URLs seen in modern spam it seems likely that spammers have cracked the CAPTCHAs used by large freeweb providers such as Yahoo! Geocities, and have automated systems to register such sites in mass quantities. Of course, they and other freeweb providers are constantly striving to eliminate this kind of abuse of their services, and with the significant amount of research currently being conducted into improving CAPTCHA technologies it is hoped this particular ‘marketing tool’ will one day be denied to spammers permanently. While some spammers turned to freeweb providers to circumvent URL blocklists, the majority continued to register their own domains, knowing that during the delay between spam containing a given domain name first appearing on spam traps and that domain being added to blocklists they could (with their botnets) dispatch hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of emails.

But anti-spammers responded with ingenuity once again, this time by monitoring WHOIS and related information for new domain registrations and comparing the name servers and other information against their databases of known spammers. In this way it became possible in many cases to add domains to blocklists before any spam had even been sent. Naturally, it wasn’t long before some spammers found ways around this as well, and when registering their domains some will specify

well-known (and trusted) freeweb name servers in the registration form, only to switch to using their own name servers just minutes before beginning their spam run.

Another similar technique is to use a new name server for each domain registered, preventing analysis of WHOIS information linking the domain with known-bad spammy name servers until it’s too late. Yet another common trick is to unleash their spam run moments after registering a new domain, thereby reducing the risk of the domain being blocked proactively. The spammy domain ‘fyefga.org’, for example, was created at 01:28 UTC on February 16 2006.

The first email making use of this domain appeared on SophosLabs’ spam traps a mere two minutes later. As far as content filtering goes, the most notable development in recent months has been the huge increase in the volume of image spam – rasterized text in an image, usually in GIF format, attached to the spam email – which has increased on SophosLabs’ spam traps more than twofold over the first half of the year . This approach is by no means new, but in the last year or so became for the first time economically viable for spammers. The surge in availability and popularity of consumer-level broadband connections means that using botnets to send larger amounts of data has become feasible, and even for those spammers who actually pay for their own bandwidth, the associated costs havereduced so dramatically that sending out millions upon millions of images is no longer prohibitively expensive.

Image spam can be used in most, if not all, of the areas traditionally occupying spammers’ efforts, but seems particularly well-suited to campaigns requiring no call to action. Image spam is commonly employed in so-called ‘pump ‘n’ dump’ schemes, in which the stock of a company is hyped in fake investment newsletters in an attempt to fool the unwary into buying shares, thus pumping up the price. The spammers or their employers then sell (‘dump’) at the higher value all the shares they hold, theoretically making a profit. The prevalence of this type of spam has exploded in the last nine months, on some days comprising up to 40% of the spam seen on SophosLabs’ spam traps. Image spam is also often used where the call to action is a phone number for the victim to call, such as in spam touting online degrees, and in a large proportion of non-English spam.

Image spam is arguably the ultimate in text obfuscation: spammers can say whatever they want without fear of triggering even the most sophisticated ASCII-based text filters. And straightforward hashes over the attachment body are prevented by (thus far) simple randomization of the image content, such as changing the compression level, adding faint dots in random locations within the image (Figure 7), rotating the image slightly in either direction, offsetting the actual content of the image within the frame around it, randomly changing font styles, sizes and colours, randomly chopping up the image and reassembling with HTML (Figure 8), and so on. There are far more ways to obfuscate image spam than text spam, and given the range of image effects available even in consumer-level image processing tools it is clear that the possible combinations are as good as infinite, with only little impact on the readability of the text.

There are numerous other challenges that must be surmounted in order to recognize and thus block image spam. First, the email often looks, at a source-code level, identical to a legitimate email containing only an attached image. In fact, a large portion of the image spam we analyse seems to have been created by first composing the email with a dummy image attached in Outlook Express or other popular mail user agent, then simply replacing the attachment with a randomly altered image and providing a random subject line, each time the message is mailed. This means the headers, the MIMEstructure and the enclosed HTML are entirely consistent with legitimate emails, and so there are no spam signs upon which to base detection other than the image itself and the IP address from which it originated.

A seemingly promising approach to the problem is, of course, employing optical character recognition to turn the rasterized text back into ASCII so it could then be scanned with existing text-based technologies. While theoretically appealing, this is unlikely to be a sustainable approach in practice. Though OCR technology has advanced a great deal in recent years the main focus of development has been on improving recognition of stable and reasonable inputs, such as printed material and handwriting. These inputs are designed to be readable (by humans, at least) and more or less consistent, and typeface designers have significant incentive to make their creations more accessible to OCR software.

For spammers, on the other hand, the incentive is precisely the opposite. The moment anti-spam filters begin employing OCR to pre-process image spam (and a SpamAssassin plug-in already exists to do just that, though it’s still in a fairly early stage of development at the time of writing), spammers will begin to manipulate their images in such a way as to make this harder to do, i.e. by further obfuscating the content. Given the myriad ways in which this is possible, and given the sensitivity of current OCR technology to unexpected input, it is difficult to envisage this approach being sufficiently reliable to justify the research and development investments required.

Even if a full OCR-based analysis of an image proves impractical, there are a variety of other, less fragile

approaches that should be considered. A great deal of information can be easily and quickly extracted from image headers, for example, that can provide valuable clues as to the ‘spamminess’ of the image in question. Perhaps the most valuable of these is the compression level of the image, which can be expressed as the number of bytes required to represent all the pixels present. Generally speaking, the more complex the image in terms of texture, the less compressible it is, whereas images with large areas of very similar colours tend to compress well. Since the great majority of the spam images currently consist of text on a plain background, they exhibit a significantly higher compression level than ‘normal’ images sent through email (Figure 9), which more often than not are texturally complex photographs or drawings. This can be a very good indicator of the spamminess of an image. If it is judged feasible to decompress the entire image (rather than just extracting the metadata) for further analysis, then another promising technique is to produce a histogram of the unique colours used within the image.

Again, normal images tend to exhibit a large number of unique colours, and their frequency distribution is relatively smooth. Spam images consisting of text on a flat background, by contrast, contain few colours, one of which is seen far more frequently than any other, and thus their histograms are often dramatically different from normal images. Once the image is decompressed it becomes possible to perform some of the classic image processing manipulations, such as converting it from the spatial domain to the frequency domain with a Fourier transform. With such processing it may well be possible to differentiate between normal – especially photographic – images (with relatively little very-high-frequency information) and rasterized text images (with a predominance of very-high-frequency information due to the rapid contrast changes where text is present) with a reasonably high degree of accuracy. Converting to the frequency domain before analysis also makes the algorithm less sensitive to such obfuscations as random rotations and faint random speckles added to the background of the image.

These and many more image processing techniques may prove valuable in anti-spammers’ efforts to remain standing in the latest round of this decades-old competition.

What to Do if You Happened to Download a Trojan Horse Program

So what to do if you were unlucky enough to download trojan horse program? Once this happens, you may face a partial loss of control over your computer. It starts interacting with the outside world by sending and receiving some kind of data, it loads programs that you had never installed, and even uses your address book to send out spam emails with explicit content.

A common sense tells you that a system that has undergone a Trojan horse attack will become still more vulnerable thanks to the infection. As a rule of thumb, Trojan viruses completely ruin the PC security. That’s why learning how to get rid of a Trojan horse virus is a very useful skill.

Every computer user that feels comfortable with Windows can learn several steps and get hold of a few software titles to be able to fight most of Internet threats. Believe me, Trojan horse programs follow a common algorithm when creating an entrance into affected machine. They place executables into system memory, create registry entries, put malicious files into Windows directories. If you know what Trojans are programmed to do, it’s much easier to locate their parts and erase them.

Smart Trojan viruses can discourage ordinary PC users by making an impression of a totally messed up system. Disabled task manager, ruined antivirus protection, blocked access to registry editor often look like there’s nothing a user can do to re-gain control over the system. Luckily that’s not true.

Knowing a couple of simple tricks is always handy. Sometimes you may experience the situation when your installed antivirus software says it has detected a Trojan horse virus but cannot disinfect or remove it. Other times your mates or relatives will ask for help in dealing with particularly stubborn malware. I think you will agree that possessing some skills and experience in PC security is a way of raising one’s self-esteem.

So create a Recovery Folder on your USB flash drive with a bunch of security programs that will help to resolve most of virus-related problems.

First, visit a-squared website and download a command-line version of its anti-malware. The zipped archive takes about 30 megabytes. If you happen to use a-squared scanner on a machine with Internet access, you can always update the anti-malware signatures by using the appropriate switch. Though command-line interface may look confusing for a novice, there’s actually nothing complicated in using its power. The scanner will work in both Normal and Safe modes. Configuring the program with an array of supported switches (refer to the built-in Help file) takes a couple of minutes at most. Worms, Trojan horse viruses, dialers, browser hijacks and other malicious objects can be detected and removed on-the-fly or at the end of scan. Command-line scanner doesn’t need installation.

Second, grab yourself a copy of SDFix. This tool has been developed for IT professionals, but it is so powerful that has become popular among regular Windows users as well. One of the underestimated features of SDFix is its ability to detect files with hidden attributes – these are files normally not seen by Windows. Thanks to detailed log file provided by SDFix it’s possible to create a list of files that need to be removed.

Finally, for those who prefer traditional GUI-based software, DrWeb provides a CureIt! utility. It installs like any normal Windows software and immediately launches a scan to check system memory, user’s folders, root of the system drive, start-up folders etc. These are the locations where malware usually leaves traces of its presence.

By combining the potential of the three security programs you can perform security tests and virus cleaning on most Windows-powered computers.

Your anti-virus is not the answer to your total Internet Security.

MicroWorld focuses on new generation e-security threats with its
new product eScan Web and Mail Filter for Windows

Do you think your anti-virus software is all that you require
for protecting your system from cyber criminals? Is it all that
you need to prevent your machine from becoming a spam producing
mill? Is it all that protects your children from obscene
material, prevents your employees from degrading their
performance by using Internet unproductively, protecting your
personal/private documents from any modifications or
unauthorized access, killing your precious bandwidth through pop
up Ads and securing you against Spywares? The answer to these
questions is a big NO.

The anti-virus software simply protects your system against
viruses, worms and trojans but the cyber criminals have become
so intelligent today that they know how to circumvent through
the security policies and attack the systems with other types of
tools. If you have an anti-virus software in place and think
that you are secured from all potential Internet threats, you
need to rethink…..as your children may fall into pornographic
loop, your bank details may be stolen and the productivity of
your organization may go down the drain. So, what is the
solution???

The recently launched product from MicroWorld, eScan Web and
Mail Filter for Windows, protects your system on a real time
basis against threats like:

Unsecured content, Spam, Pornography, Unproductive use of
Internet, Spyware, Pop Up Advertisements etc.

The product has been developed to run efficiently with any
antivirus software you might already have on your system.

“This product has been developed keeping into consideration the
security requirement of our users who already have an anti-virus
in place but are vulnerable to other new potential e-threats”,
said Mr. Govind Rammurthy, CEO and MD, MicroWorld. “People
already having an anti-virus installed on their systems if want
to secure themselves from other potential e-threats also usually
do not find software which can gel with their existing
anti-virus and provide them a good security. Considering this
requirement of our users we have launched this new product in
the market which we expect would get phenomenal response”, he
futher says.

The more details about the new product from MicroWorld can be

Xp Antivirus: Dreadly Security Software Removal

The year 2008 definitely showed its benevolence for Internet scammers: they found a way to get paid for their illegal activity.
And that way includes wild distribution of fake security software via aggressive spamming on forums and blogs.
One example of such software is a notoriously known XP antivirus, also called Windows XP antivirus 2008. It is a classic rogue software that behaves quite differently from what it claims to do. So, instead of scanning for viruses and removing them, it ruins the system security by opening wide breaches, then installs Trojans and acts like any other spyware – but that’s not all. XP antivirus scares the user into buying the full version of it! Of course, the paid version doesn’t get any milder on the computer, but it reaches the goal – its creators get money for their evil work.
So how do you tell if your PC has been infected with XP anti virus?
There are signs that cannot go unnoticed:

Windows-like balloons inform about malware detected in the system;
A corrupt Windows security center recommends downloading antivirus software;
Pop-ups scare the user with all kinds of messages urging to get the protection NOW;
While visiting websites you may see annoying pop-ups offering free online scan.

A sad fact about this rogue software is that it stays unnoticed by antivirus programs. To get rid of XP antivirus, you can follow several simple manual steps:

1. unregister DLL-files related to XP antivirus or modified by it;
2. end malicious processes in the Task Manager;
3. remove relevant entries from the Windows registry;
4. locate and delete program files installed by the software.

There’s nothing really complicated with the manual removal procedure; any intermediate PC user can do that.
However, if you don’t feel like playing with the system and registry (which is always risky), there are tools that can do the removal process for you for free.
Visit the hubpage in my resource box to find detailed instructions on how to get rid of XP antivirus.
