Today SophosLabs analysts encountered a variety of stock/medicine spam messages containing an embedded link to a malware hosted on a remote website. The embedded link to the malware is already being detected by Sophos as Troj/eAgent-D. This malware is a spamming Trojan tool for the Windows platform, providing functionality to act as an email spam proxy. The presence of Troj/eAgent-D clearly indicates that spammers not only can spread their advertisements but they can also spread malware in an attempt to gain access to their victims’ computers.
