Hackers hijack Windows Update's downloader
,----[ Quote ]
| Hackers are using Windows Updates' file transfer component to sneak
| malicious code downloads past firewalls, Symantec researchers said
| Thursday.
|
| The Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) is used by
| Microsoft's operating systems to deliver patches via Windows
| Update. BITS, which debuted in Windows XP and is baked into
| Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista, is an asynchronous file
| transfer service with automatic throttling -- so downloads
| don't impact other network chores. It automatically resumes
| if the connection is broken.
