So how many of you have Yahoo IM and have been getting messages from people trying to get you to take some IQ test? Before it was random contacts but seems a friend of mine got infected. I changed her name for privacy sake but, be careful about this. I copied the log because what the 'hacked' account says is the same each and every time, the responses are scripted. Ohh and I removed the http from the link so nobody accidently clicks the link that has the trojan in it

2284: heyy
Katscan: Morning
Katscan: How are you?
2284: i just took an IQ quiz here.. pretty cool
Katscan: huh?
2284: got a 113 lol... I thought I was smarter than that
Katscan: Who are you? (If you post this question the immediate response is below and it never changes)
2284: you dont even know me anymore? wow..
Katscan: Ohh you got hacked
2284: im not hacked!
Katscan: Then who is this?
Katscan: Where did we meet?
2284: you should see if you can do better than me... //iqtestingwso2.com/?invitecode=2z18tkd7c1 if u can ill give you twenty dollars lol

My ' Norton Anti-Virus ', has been eliminating tracking cookies.
Sometimes it is only a few.
At the most, 6 or 8 trackers are disposed of.

The email has been reasonably safe.
Junk mail and spam, is wiped out immediately.
Have not come across, any viruses and trojans as yet.
