Hi all,
I have an interesting one. I got a malware link via a spam e-mail.
It was VERY amateur it say the least. (In the form in ftp://user:pass@11.1.1.1/randomnumber.htm
So I used my FTP client to get the file and sure enough on total antivirus a 20% hit rate for a malware downloader.
Looking at the html it's encrypted. (Haven't figured how yet)
Soooo, I downloaded the whole site.
Then I renamed the randomnumber.htm to r.htm on the site so no-one could get to the malware link.
On investigating the sites other pages, loads of encrypted pages, loaded of porn banners.
I'm wondering if I should just delete the whole site via FTP.
This is not an ethical debate on wether or not I'm perceived as hacking following a link sent to me by malware (Which just happened to contain the username and password DUH!), but more an ethical debate on if I should kill the whole site to stop the idiots who would click on links like that for the site.
Cheers,
Tel
EDIT : fixed some typos and clarified.
