Technical Details

The detection 'Trojan.js.blacole.gen' identifies JavaScript code hosted on websites that have been compromised with additional code.

The affected script redirects visitors to a malicious site that prompts them to download a file, purportedly Adobe Flash player, to "display all contents correctly".

On clicking the 'Download Now' button, a file named flashplayer.exe is downloaded from a SkyDrive account.

If the downloaded flashplayer.exe file is executed, a distracting image is displayed.

Meanwhile in the background, the file contacts the same SkyDrive to silently download additional malware.
