Warning Fake UO site with Trojan Virus

Jirel of Joiry · 3rd April 2007, 09:44 PM

I got a message just a little while ago from a very old and trustworthy UO buddy, Plucky Duck. Apparently he got a random im from a fake UO:KR site.

Here's what he said "Warning, I recieved an ICQ couple minutes ago with only a site listed at x uo dot com Do NOT go to it. Norton has detected a virus/program inside the link that it surprisingly blocked. (LOL) the web page: uo - x dot com, is a backdoor trojan and your computer will open a fake Kingdom Reborn webpage, and then attempt to hack your computer. If you have been there, check your c: drive and delete all the copies of U.exe"

I just wanted to warn everyone so no one gets hacked .

Thanks for the warning.

I was just thinking people who do stuff like this need to be misled in RL, then have a virus backdoor trojan them.

Glad to think that these virus scripting monkeys find UO to be popular enough to bother attacking its fanbase. w00t! UO rules!

I'll think I'll go watch "Tron" and figure out how I can get sucked into my computer and go on attack mode!
