A worm found spreading via America Online's Instant Messenger is carrying a nastier punch than usual, a security company has warned.
One of the virus writers suspected of creating the Zotob and Mytob worms has been linked to a notorious network of malware creators called 0x90-team.
The recent surge in worms could be part of an underground battle to hijack computers for use in Internet crimes, some security experts say -- but others aren't convinced.
Malware writers continue to pound users of Microsoft's MSN Messenger and AOL's Instant Messenger services with malicious messages containing links that could infect the victim's computer with a Trojan horse or dangerous worm.
The latest variant of the SDbot worm contain network-sniffing software that enables it to retrieve passwords from other computers connected to the target PC.
