ZeroAccess criminals wave white flag: The impact of partnerships on cybercrime

Thanks Ron, and great work being done against the cybercriminals.
Think the story link should be: https://blogs.technet.com/b/microso...the-impact-of-partnerships-on-cybercrime.aspx

 

Ah sorry, my mistake, thought I was going to just main MS blog from 1st link, thanks

 

FYI, Yes it does (for me anyway) I just tried, and the latest post I saw was posted 4 hours ago and it's about "Microsoft celebrates 83 retail stores...." https://blogs.technet.com/b/microsoft_blog/

But this takes me straight to the blog about ZeroAccess....
https://blogs.technet.com/b/microso...the-impact-of-partnerships-on-cybercrime.aspx

 

The below link works for me. As stated there was a new entry posted since this story broke.
https://blogs.technet.com/b/microso...the-impact-of-partnerships-on-cybercrime.aspx

 

The link in the first post is still the same, Ron?

 

It still is, the point being there had been new entries since the link in question was posted

 

I have to play Devil's advocate.

Like the wars against other things such as drugs, does each success really make a difference? In spite of the propaganda of a successful operation by authorities, do the shadowy malware creators just move on to another target and start again?

I'm cynical. We seem to be winning a battle but always losing the war.

 

Yes and the ZeroAccess blog will only go further down with each new blog post being published

 

Avoiding the obvious.

 

Despite the presumed hilarity of the thread by some - ZeroAccess was a real threat. How do I remove Sirefef (ZeroAccess) trojan?
There is also a stand-alone removal tool available from ESET for use by anyone below.
