GOOGLE CHROME USERS AS VIRUS ATTACK TARGETS

 

Be careful for Google Chrome browser user. A virus is designed specifically to fool the Google Chrome users. Already it is too late to post this as i too don't know about this till now.

As the security company BitDefender report, that appears malicious programs disguised as extension for Google Chrome.

Attack mode begins with an email that advertises extension for Google Chrome. Extension of this false claimed to be able to help organize documents received via email.

In fact, the mail contains a link to a fake page of Google Chrome extensions. This page will link to file with the Exe extension and not Crx extension which is the original suffix for extension of Google Chrome.

Malicious programs that will change the Hosts file from Windows and block access to Yahoo and Google. If the victim tried to access both the popular site, the page that appears is a fake page.
