Well, it seems that WoW Insider has traced a virus imbedded inside Fraps (The video recording software used to create many of the videos we see out there).  Now I know that many of you use this out there so I wanted to make sure we helped inform the community of what’s going on.

WoW Insider stated -  

“WoW Insider has received a high number of reports of hacked accounts today. We have traced the Trojan to Trojan.Crypt.FKM.Gen. This Trojan has been known to steal World of Warcraft login information.

What we believe has happened, and please take this with the appropriate grain of salt, is that Fraps had a modified version of SpyLocked in it, which installed the Trojan.Crypt.FKM.Gen into Microsoft Net Meeting, which was then started silently when Windows rebooted”

 I’d advise everyone to go check out the full article, follow their tips, and most importantly!!!

Scan your systems!!!
