IW.net allegedly spreading a Trojan virus

Reported in this forum post on the official IW forums and our very own forums apparently hackers have found a way to go around the IW.net system and send a Trojan virus through the IW.net system to Modern Warfare 2 players. Reverse engeneering the source code for Modern Warfare 2, the hackers inserted their Trojan and used the IW.net system to spread it to players across the globe. This was brough to light after several players got notified of a breach in their security by their antivirus software. The Trojan TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen had been sent to them using Modern Warfare 2's IW.net as the official transmitter (according to the antivirus). The Trojan itself apparently already surfaced in Call of Duty : World at War and is some sort of keylogging software hackers use to steal keycodes or potentially worse (stealing credit card information for instance).

The Trojan would exploit the port that is opened by Call of Duty when you are a listen server (when you are the host of a game) to send you the Trojan without your knowledge.

I lol'd, however it appears to be a false positive or at least claimed to be.

Quick answer: No.

Longer answer: No it isn't.

Reason: The game is great but for the singleplayer to only last 4hrs worth of gameplay, there is only so many times you can repeat it. Even Spec Ops requires online to complete some of the missions.

    • Thanks mate, yeah I've heard that alot and i am definitely regretting using the 25 Loom now, i have gone through and traced all the plugs from the 20loom and re wired them into the 25 loom, I have currently got Crank, Fuel and accessory's working, just need to finalise the loom and run the wire for the Ignition (Spark) and it should be running, will update if i have any luck.
    • Cheers lad, when I head over there I'll give it a shot.
    • Stock less likely to carry one like that than urethane, but still can, especially if the bolts are not as tight as they should be. If it's making that much noise you should be able to use a hose as a stethoscope> stick one end in your ear, crouch down and wave it around the various possible noise makers and get someone to lift the front end at the guard lip.
    • Broken actuator rod. Could be one of a couple of them broken. Or, it's locked and the central locking actuator is broken/stuck or the actuator rods between it, the lock and the key barrel are jammed or broken similarly. You'll probably need a locksmith/mechanic who is experienced with using slim tools to reach down next to the window glass to manipulate the mechanism. That's assuming that it is not so severely jammed/broken that nothing useful will move.
    • So I've got my R34 GTT it's currently in Japan and I'm not there. I was wondering if any has any tips or ideas of what could be preventing the door from opening. I dont have really any information on it at all since I haven't actually seen the car in person yet.
