Security Expert MicroWorld Technologies Releases Alert on New Trojan Affecting Online Gamers
Posted by Shawn
‘OnlineGames.dr’ comes into computers via offers and help notes posted by crooks in game forums or by exploiting browser vulnerabilities. Written in Delphi language, ‘OnlineGames.dr’ injects its DLL component into running processes and places an ‘autorun.inf’ file in the root of each drive to ensure that it gets activated every time a drive is opened.
Once active, it snoops on user activity, steals confidential account information from unwitting victims and sends it to a remote attacker. In a few cases, the Trojan also posts this stolen information to certain malicious websites. With the username and password of a virtual game player in his hand, the Trojan writer can directly log on to the victim’s account and sell off the characters and other goods for real world money.
This Trojan targets ‘Massively Multiplayer Online Role-playing Games’ (MMORPG), particularly the ones like Gamania and Wowtaiwan, meant for the Taiwanese audience. MMORPG is a genre of online computer role-playing games where a huge number of players interact with each other in a fantasy world. Every participant plays the role of a fantasy character and buys and sells fictional goods online, while they also barter stuff among each other. On many websites you can buy goods and characters using actual currency and do vice versa.
“The magnitude of the online gaming economy is much bigger than what meets the eye,” points out Govind Rammurthy, CEO of MicroWorld Technologies. “The total amount of real world money connected to all gaming sites is close to half a billion dollars, and there you can see why malware writers are training their guns on virtual game players. Trojans are known for their direct or indirect financial motives and this breed is no different”.
Password stealing Trojan variants lurking in the web are many and their targets varied. While most of them eye credit card and banking information, some of them go after eBay or Paypal accounts. A good number of Trojans send the stolen information to its creator via email where as others connect to the attacker through ports.
“Malware targeting online game accounts has been in existence for a long time, but the stakes were never as high as they are now. To combat this menace, gaming companies need to come up with more sophisticated authentication procedures while users should deploy competent protection for their computers. Because when you are pitted against a cyber criminal, neither does he play by the rules of the game nor does he give you a second chance,” says Govind Rammurthy.

Press Release: Fans of Popular MMORPG Game ‘World of Warcraft’ Collaborate to Build Largest Online Game Information Resource
Posted by Shawn
San Mateo, Calif. (PRWEB) September 7, 2007 — Wikia, Inc. (www.wikia.com) the leading provider of community resources for building and organizing free content on every topic, today announced that the World of Warcraft Wikia (WOWWiki) has surpassed the 40,000 article mark, making it one of the biggest, most comprehensive online resources for all-things related to the popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), World of Warcraft.
Since its founding in 2004, WOWWiki (www.wowwiki.com) has grown immensely and today has a wealth of quality, in-depth information covering the entirety of the Warcraft Universe including the articles on the game's characters, game play guides for "newbies," RTS games, novels, World of Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game books, and manga, as well as information on the game's expansion packs such as The Burning Crusade and The Wrath of the Litch King. In addition, WOWWiki is also a popular source for World of Warcraft interface customization information and franchise news.
WOWWiki is unique as it was built and is continually maintained by an active community of volunteers who are passionate about World of Warcraft and enjoy collaborating with fellow gamers to continue the growth and development of the WOWWiki site. Of the 40 or so people who run the site, one of the community's most active members is George Pribul, who also goes by the alias "Kirkburn," and has been contributing to and editing the WOWWiki site for over a year.
"The WOWWiki community is fantastic because it gives players the ability to create a social network and collaborate with each other outside of game play," said Kirkburn, WOWWiki Administrator. "More and more contributors and visitors come to WOWWiki on a daily basis and it has been really exciting to see the site take off over the past year–I think we offer gamers a unique and valuable resource that enhances the World of Warcraft experience."
A testament to its popularity, the WOWWiki site attracts over 2 million unique users per month and was recently ranked in top 1,500 sites for the first time–according to Alexa rankings based on three months of cumulative historical traffic data from millions of Alexa Toolbar users.
To learn more or to become a member of the WOWWiki community, please visit: www.wowwiki.com.
