Indian social network's favored child Orkut is on a hacker's list. As per reports from WebSense, Orkut is being used to spread a malicious Trojan through a message in Portuguese.
An Orkut user gets a random message in Portuguese from a spooky Orkut member looking for a hook-up, who persuades the user to click on the given link. The link which appears to be leading to a social networking site results in a Trojan 'imagem.exe' injection on clicking on the link.
The Trojan then opens up the Orkut login page and provides access to the user's ID; you can imagine the extent of damage wrought by this.
So, we warn all Orkut users to delete such strange messages as soon as they receive them and to not click on them.
