Koobface 0×3e8 Folders and setup.exe Links

Obviously, this is a fairly well automated scheme. The site locations are scattered throughout the globe. All the sites that we have visited serve up the same rather uninspired video presentation with a familiar and phony “Flash Player upgrade required” page. It serves malicious Koobface binaries from a most likely fictitious Bruno Carlot and his video about Hong Kong:

As always, exercise a high level of caution when reading tweets with links, and add a behavioral layer of protection to your system.
