The virus uses the embedded java script portion of Internet Explorer
which is a common scripting used by nearly all websites.

The virus is called TRJ/Pornotop.a it is a Trojan virus that logs
keystrokes and sends information to a remote computer.

The virus hides itself in the temporary internet files portion of
Internet Explorer when a user visits www.yahoo.com

This is a link to Panda Anti-Virus's website that offers information
on the virus.

The virus was released on February 4th. So if you do not have great
anti-virus protection such as that which is provided by Panda you will
not even know that you have been infected.

And your point in posting this in multiple news Groups is what ?

This isn't a high level threat. There are many more threats just like this that
come out
almost daily.
