Are you using Skype? Then, its time to be aware of this new threat called Warezov Trojan horse. Websense has alerted that, A targeted Skype user will receive a chat message with the text "Check up this" and a link to a malicious executable called "file_01.exe" . If the user happens to run the file, several other files will be downloaded and run. Once affected, the worm will start spreading by sending messages to the victim's Skype contacts to propagate.
Websense Blog has some great analysis of this Warezov Trojan virus, if you are interested you can read it there.
So at this moment, the only way to be secure from this threat is not to click anything thats suspicious even from your contacts. Ask them first and confirm that they send the link or else just ignore those links.
Will update if i get any fix or patch for this.
