Removing manually Mal/Iframe-AD

Bandini

Hello,

sophos detected this threat today: Mal/Iframe-AD - i am supposed to remove it but when I open the quarantine manager and attempt to manually remove it, the option 'clean up threat' stays grey - how can I delete manually the virus?

best regards

Samuele Galassi

    Good to hear :)

    This malware is usually used on SEO poisoned image searches; you click on the image and are tossed over to a page that will bring up a Fake Antivirus alert.  For a while, these were serving up MacDefender if you were on a Mac, but that operation was shut down by the authorities.  Right now, it only serves up Windows Fake Antivirus.
