    I just went over to check my bank records at www.bankofamerica.com and NOD IMON says this:

    HTML/Phishing.gen trojan

    Anyone?

    Hm well I get it also clicking that site - having a look around but not finding much so far. Anyway, regardless of the outcome, rest assured it's not just you.

    IMON detection @www.bankofamerica.com

    OK, so I've sent this to Eset, but wanted to see if other Nod32 users were getting this warning when visting the bankofamerica homepage?

    Not with FireFox. It seems to only occur with Internet Explorer.

    Hi jonhawash - I have merged your thread into a slightly older (few minutes lol) thread about the same subject. Also, I will mention that as I said earlier it is detecting the same for me - and I am using Firefox through the Proxomitron.

    folklore - I have also merged your thread into this one. Hopefully we can keep the bankofamerica.com discussion in this one thread. I've also edited the thread title here to help other find this existing thread.

    I called BOA and let them in on this. Hopefully it will be taken care of soon by them, or ESET if it is a false positive. This just started today.

    Well, my roommates computer is running Norton Antivirus and his box does not detect this trojan on BOA.com. So, either NA really sucks at picking up on this, or NOD should not be.

    I'm not seeing any reaction by IMON running in higher compatibility mode in Firefox 1.5.0.1. Do the folks using Firefox and getting a detection by IMON have the Firefox activeX plugin installed? (I don't and won't)

    My son just got this a short while ago (that's his bank, too).

    He called me after the first alert, we tried both browsers - FireFox v.1.5.0.1 and IE v.6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 - and got the alert on both.

    (Plus a few more <g> ). Odd, to say the least. Hopefully, BoA is locking up their vaults as we speak. Pete

    All detections were by AMON, not IMON, here. Did the about:plugins thing here with FireFox and I'm not seeing anything that's saying it's ActiveX-related. Running JRE 5.0 Update 6 here.

    Normally any malicious file cached by Firefox is inert because it is renamed as it is cached and even though your antivirus reacts to it, there should not be any danger to your system.

    Never say never, you need windows update ;) and multiple programs use IE to display pages in their help files.
