Around 300,000 internet users across the world LOST their internet connections ON MONDAY if their computers have been infected with the deadly “Alureon/DNS Changer bot” virus, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has warned.The warning has been splashed across Facebook and Google, and the FBI has set up a special website to help internet users to stay safe, a newspaper reported.
DNSChanger malware causes a computer to use rogue DNS servers in one of two ways. First, it changes the computer’s DNS server settings to replace the ISP’s good DNS servers with rogue DNS servers operated by the criminal. Second, it attempts to access devices on the victim’s small office/home office (SOHO) network that run a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server (eg. a router or home gateway).
The malware attempts to access these devices using common default usernames and passwords and, if successful, changes the DNS servers these devices use from the ISP’s good DNS servers to rogue DNS servers operated by the criminals. This is a change that may impact all computers on the SOHO network, even if those computers are not infected with the malware.
