Well, as the saying goes, there is sugar there are ants. In addition to drawing many players online if you want to pay a subscription fee to play and spend a lot of time to improve the ability of the characters he played the character. Apparently it also invites parties who want to steal the irresponsible character owned by players of World of Warcraft to make a virus that serves as trojans and keyloggers.

How to Spread

Many ways to trick the victim attempted to run the trojan. Some things are done as follows:

* Posting on a public forum, then give a link to download the file.
* Link to download flash player, but that is a trojan download and run.
* Post a link on the forum of the game as a game FAQ page, or by asking questions about some of the things in the game that included a link, to link up on the latest patches on certain games.
* Send an e-mail that included a link or a particular attachment.
* File sharing on a network, usually a executable file / application.
