This is a post-only message

The malicious payload is an exploit kit at computerpills.net/main.php?page=beb0bb4c8ebd96e5 hosted on 37.59.68.23 (OVH, UK) which is the same server used in this attack, the payload looks to be the same as the one used in this other attack, with a very low detection rate at VirusTotal of just 3/42.

Hi,

I linked to your blog from the @virusbtn account, as I have done in the past. Someone pointed out that you include literal malicious URLs in your posts and, although they are not clickable, someone could 'accidentally' copy/paste them (perhaps because they misunderstand your blog post) and then get infected. Would it be an idea to either hide part of the URL, or display it in such a way that it's very difficult to copy/paste it in a browser?

Thanks - Martijn
