pankers Posted October 17, 2016 ID:1066960 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I am trying to verify that this occurs immediately as a result of a user action, and isn't something that is downloaded discreetly and "sleeps" until a certain trigger or time. Can anyone verify this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pankers Posted October 18, 2016 Author ID:1067139 Share Posted October 18, 2016 We just encountered an instance of it and I want to understand how it behaves. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted October 19, 2016 ID:1067181 Share Posted October 19, 2016 When you indicate you "encountered an instance of it" do you mean your actual anti virus application indicated you had the W32/YahLover.worm ? Or was it a case of you encountering an instance of a web page fraud like the ones I recorded into videos that I provided you ? The W32/YahLover.worm was seen in 2006 and is now "history" and is no longer a real threat. However it is commonly used in HTML.FakeAlert web pages.
