Update your virus scanners ASAP.

Note: The file C:\gameff11.txt contains a word in Chinese that means "Final Fantasy"

OMGz! The gil sellers are attacking!

heh, thanks for the headsup.

I'm curious how it is being spread. How do you specifically target ffxi user computers? They make a very small percentage of total computer users, so just blind infection would have very few results. Interesting virus though.

I imagine it's a trojan embedded in bots/cheat programs. Something like MrArgus with a side order of stolen account.

Isn't this the virus that was spread through some of allakahzams adds a few weeks ago?

They should imbed more viruses in cheating programs, unless it effects my game play, seeing as how I don't cheat. I wouldn't mind seeing someone using a program like that getting their motherboard fried or something >_>
