Botnet sics zombie soldiers on gimpy websites
,----[ Quote ]
| Asprox zombies have recently been blessed with a tool that sniffs out
| potentially vulnerable sites running Microsoft's Active Server Pages and then
| tries to commandeer them using SQL injections. When infections are
| successful, the pages then redirect visitors to websites that silently
| install a malware cocktail that includes the Asprox malware. The vicious
| cycle gives the scheme worm-like capabilities.
