I’m pretty sure most, if not all, of us have already heard about the phenomenal pay-to-play MMORPG called “World of Warcraft”. With over 8 million subscribers worldwide and more than 2 million in just the United states alone. Well, upon seeing these numbers it wouldn’t be a surprise to learn that Malware authors have taken advantage of the games popularity to spread some other malware cheer.

Just recently another set of websites have been found to contain variants of TSPY_WOW and TROJ_ANICMOO.AX. TSPY_WOW variants are basically known to monitor users internet browsing activities as well as steal information related to the online game World of Warcraft such as usernames and passwords.

Users should be wary of the sites they visit as they may often look like the official WOW site. Below is a list of domains that were recently verified to host malicious files:

• http://world0fwarcraft.net
  
• http://www.wor1dofwarcraft.com
