DNS problems and QHosts-1 Trojan

[ChrisHirst]

There has been 3 tek-tips members having problems with this trojan. (Queries posted in another forum) So although it is profiled as a low risk infector, it's possibly more wide spread than thought.

So if you seem to be having DNS issue check for this as well

Thank you for making us aware.

Do you think you could provide thread number links here to the relevant posts here on the site? It will make this announcement infinitely more useful, as I see there is an exploit patch from MS etc. and the information available at the link you have provided just gives the basics.

THANKS!
Kimber
