    using Vmware, and packet sniffers/loggers, i could find the name of the conference, and then when you connect to that, you see all the names . . easy really . . just gotto get the actual virus, not hard considdereing the creator was boasting on a yahoo chat room giving it to people

    Yahoo games voice protocol? I don't seem to have heard of it before. Is it a chat function or IM function inside yahoo games.

    This case is easy to understand. It's a bot net virus using yahoo... this is just really another dark side of the internet. But hey not surprising when it comes to public chat rooms like these. I would love to experiment around with these sort of things, but don't want to waste unnecessary resources and time with this machine.

    Anyway, good work on exposing a virus like that.

    yes as far as i have been informed from programmers, Yahoo has forgotten about these servers (i am skectical that yahoo can forget about servers that are being used by people). There are chat clients for yahoo that allow you to connect to these servers and have a private chat like a confrerence. For example Yahelite , when you are in a chat room you can type /vj my secret convo or something and boom you open a games voice conference that anyone can join if they know the name.

    This guy btw has now about 40 machines infected now with his final version 40 . . . . last time there were 4

    well i am not 100% sure, BUT he did let slip once that hes infecting peoples computers by finding computers that have desktop sharing on. I am not sure if he means the microsoft remote desktop or not. But to test i scanned my isp subnet for an ip to mstsc to and when i connected it had Administrator in the username and i hit enter and nothing happened. Perhaps he does this in mass and finds ones that are open maybe ? maybe hes cracking old buggy VNC instalations that can be cracked . . i do know that he "remotes" their pc's and "puts it in there" manually him self. Your guess is as good as mine . . .:ninja:
