Here's an interesting one. Peripherals manufacturer I-O Data has shipped a series of nice-looking portable hard drives in the 40GB to 120GB range - carrying the Backdoor.Win32.Tompai trojan on them.More interesting is *why* there would be a "master image" on a new expansion hard drive in the first place.
I just bought a couple of external USB-based hard drives, and the preformatted filesystems had an autorun with the logo of the vendor: I think it was strictly so that the Western Digital icon showed up when in Explorer. As far as I can tell, the drive was otherwise blank. Steve _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
