Malware Authors Battling

Dallas Computer Repair reports the authors of Warezov and Storm worm are engaged in online war to see who can control the largest botnet and gain the most profit. At least two groups are involved and possibly three criminals or criminal enterprises including the author(s) of Bagle worm variants. These malware authors are varying their trojans to more easily go into stealth mode where they steal computer users information.

Users need to keep a good 3rd party firewall up and running along with updated anti-virus signatures.
