Trojan horse can affect adsense account

How i can scan my network of sites for virus and trojan horse infections.

(I heard some trojan horse can affect adsense ac, so i want to scan my sites at server for trojan horse.

 

I heard it first time
but i would like to hear more about it

 

never heard of it, waiting for more details

 

Well, personally i know for a fact that i can make a trojan send it to my victims, make them execute it (Totally undetected) , and with that becomes a botnet of computers to automatically click my ads on my sites (I dont do this just saying i could).

Or i could use the botnet to click on a victims website a bunch of times to get the adsense account banned. Trojans and the stuff you can do with them these days are very scary and dangerous. People that know how trojans work , like myself are 10X more afraid on the internet then the average user that doesnt know what could happen, like loosing your bank account etc.

look on date 2005

 

LOL ........ Look at that post date. It is December 28, 2005 HaHa...

Never hear about that

 

but recent virus was used to replace adsense code with some third party ad codes

 

If your server is secure, then you do not have to worry about someone uploading trojans to your website.

Peace,

 

so what?

and how to insure that my server is secure or unsecure

LOL for what? can't u read jesense post?

 

Easy.

Always validate user input.

Never dispense uploaded files without proper dispatchment procedures.

Make sure that your kernel, programs and scripts are up-to-date and apply patches when they are released.

Peace,

 

thansk for this posts, I'd love to see the resolution too. trojan will not just affect your adsense, (maybe) but also can sneak into your gmail or any email account.

Someone has done so to me! he has hold of my gmail account, so that means you gotta be careful. It would be good to know about the tool to scan the network sites for trojan.

 

so do we should not disclose adsense email address to anyone

 

You can trust me, anytime.

 

that relay matters never disclose your adsense mail...don't open adense account in public computers..use a good antivirus and firewall in your computer..it has nothing to do with sever

 

well i only use my pc and have AVG antivirus but firewall is not installed coz it creates problem for some sites.

I remember that day when virus was transfered from my pc to my shared server and my site could blacklist but my host support team helped me. and they never mind what i am saying to them.

 

Which web host you have ?

 

liquidweb and nexus

 

it iz not possiable , but ever becarefull about your AdSense account ,dnt open it on public computers,

 

everything is possible. Read jesense posts or search google u will see that it is possible.

technology is making progress day by day so anything can happen
