AIM worm chats with intended victims
Quote:'Bad punctuation and grammar and over-use of "lol"... but kittypink5 always speaks like that!'

A new worm that targets users of AOL Instant Messenger is believed to be the first that actually chats with the intended victim to dupe the target into activating a malicious payload, IM security vendor IMlogic warned on Tuesday

...The malicious file disables security software, installs a backdoor and tweaks system files, the company said. Then it starts sending itself to contacts on the victim's buddy list.
