Hello Donna,
Are you able to tell me whether I am protected if I have my firewall (Sygate Personal - free version)set to ask for permission to access the net??
I currently have most applications set to ask and only certain program (i.e. virus set for automatic access.
If I have to actally close the port, apparently I need to select both the local port and remote port. Is the remote port the 10002 mentioned above??
Thanks, Lesley
Security firm iDefense is warning Internet users about a new Trojan horse program, known as Ibiza-A, that exploits a vulnerability in Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE) web browser for which no fix currently exists. According to iDefense, the Trojan has infected at least 5,000 computers as of February 13, 2004. Users can only be affected if they click on a link that appears to lead to a travel-related website; once a machine has been infected, Ibiza downloads and installs additional code, changes the Windows registry, and opens TCP port 10002 to listen for commands from its author. To protect themselves, users could utilize different browsers such as Mozilla or Opera or only visit websites they trust.
