Virus Alert

Just a warning to all.
Last night I was playing on B&N, with Jarvins.
My tribes crashed, and my computer rebooted.
When my system came backup, there was an Alert.
Both of my firewalls had been violated.
The trace showed that the Violation came through Newbie’s server.
I logged back on to tribes and noticed,
I was not the only one that got booted off the game.
So I ran a Virus scan on my system.
I found that I now had a backdoor Trojan Virus on my system.
I had just run a virus scan on my system the day before.
Playing on Newbie’s was the first thing I had done since running
the scan the day before.
So if you were there when I was on you might want to run a
virus scan on your system.
This is in no way a slam on B&N, I enjoy playing here seeing all my old friends.
I just thought you should be warned of a virus that I found on my system.

just curious Homer what trojan was it ? Is it possible for a trojan to pass thru a tribes server?

Could this explain all the probs the server has been having, someone having access to newbs server thru a (sub seven?) Trojan horse?

Here is the message I got and where the Viruses were found.

The file
C:\WINDOWS\Winreg.exe
C:\_RESTORE\TEMP\A0040914.CPY
is infected with the Backdoor.Trojan virus.

Hope this helps.

I had a file with the name Raisl, he only played once on the 7th of October. If he does go by a different name on my server i'll find out. I've blocked his IP, and I'm sure if he still plays under a different name he'll copmlain about not beening able to get on.

Scanned my system because of all the time I pick to go to B&N to start playing again is the night of the mis-hap. Go figure.

Results:
No viruses found.

Vakir was baned from my server, when I heard he was making threats on B&N.
He was first a player on your server, then came to mine untill I heard he was making threats.
So I wiped his character, and baned his IP.

We dont know it was Vakir. For all we know, Homer could have gotten it from his server somehow... Not anything against you Homer.

even if it were possible to send a virus through tribes.. there better off tricking you to download something to put the virus on
