Popular IT security site TechCrunch Europe served up a Zeus trojan installer PDF file to its visitors on Monday of this week and, says leading provider of secure browsing services Trusteer, the infection is down to the rising tide of Zeus attacks.
According to Mickey Boodaei, Trusteer's chief executive, one of the Javascript files of the TechCrunch site was modified by hackers to open an IFRAME, which in turn delivered a PDF file with a nasty Zeus infection.
