Default Virus Warning...

Well, thanks to the recent hacker attack, this web site has been blacklisted on my work computer [] I am a city employee and our computers are pretty secure, but when I went to work the other night I found a printout from the IT manager, and apparently he had quite a job of cleaning the virus/malware from the computer. I haven't seen him yet to talk to him, but wanted to pass along the information regarding the virus/malware names... they did originate from this web site. They are: TSC_GENCLEAN and JS_IFRAME.US. I Googled the first one and there was a bunch of Chinese writing in the responses. I'm not sure what these are, but you may want to check your computers. Nothing in my computer has detected anything so far, but I wondering if it was missed.

Different anti-virus/security companies have different aliases for the same thing, so I would think they are all one and the same. They werent so much a virus (although picked up by decent anti-virus software) but can be just as malicious or dangerous in the end. The only files that are on your computer at the time are the cached versions of the site which had the dodgy HTML/framer scripting into them, nothing actually executable unless you click on the scripts etc.

Thanks, I'm going to shut down and do it from "safe mode".
