IP: Trojan horse targets AOL

[Dave Farber <dave () farber net>]

> Subscribers to America Online's Internet
> service are being warned to keep watch for
> a password-stealing virus circulating in the
> form of an e-mail attachment. The virus,
> dubbed "APStrojan.qa," attempts to steal
> members' names and passwords and then
> send them via e-mail to the virus' author. If a
> user is logged onto AOL 4.0 or 5.0, the virus
> also tries to e-mail itself to active people on
> members' "buddy list."
