Spyware issues from IM?

April 20th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I have a problem that is occurring in one of my contacts pc. His system is infected with winanonymous spyware. I was able to clean the spyware using good anti-spyware like adware and so. but was not able to remove its reoccurance.

The source

when i or anyone sent a web link (like http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official) in his IM , he recieves the domain www.google.com changed to an ip address and when he clicks it (trusting on my link) he gets a page not found. but after that he infected again..

My Question is

How is the spyware able to hook into yahoo messenger IM . any one knows which spyware with this kind of symptoms should I be looking for ? Also if anyone can give resolutions i would also be helpful.

Thanks in advance
found it on yahoo messenger. havent seen, tried this on Windows live messenger.
