BODOG TROJAN HORSE

#1 19th July 2007, 2:54 PM

I have gotten 3 or 4 Trojan Horses after Bodog updates. The attach themselfs in the Bodog Casino folder. Lucky my anti-virus catches them quick but I'm wanting to get the word out and find out if anybody else has had a problem.

Hmmmm....hadn't seen this happen yet. Though I just looked and I don't have a "Bodog Casino Folder" either.

Do you recall if the trojan horse was called "Backdoor.Win32.Small.la" or something similar? I've recently read an article about something similar being included in some rakeback software.

I never had a problem with the poker room until I downloaded Bodog Casino. I do remember seeing something on the news about a trojan horse and Bodog was mentioned but I can't remember the details or find anything on Google.

Don't know how much you actually use the casino, but if not a lot, can you uninstall just the casino software and not affect the poker room? If not, just kill it all and download just the poker room software again, I guess.

Thanks for the heads up on the casino software though. I don't play in the online casinos, but if I ever decide to risk it, I'll avoid Bodog.

Don't know if it is actually Bodog thats downloading it or if it's targeting Bodog Folders. I really dont know enough about these things to tell.

Is your virus protection up to date? I wonder if you might have a virus on your computer that is targeting Bodog Casino or something and it updates and gets caught each time, but maybe the initiating virus isn't being caught. Maybe try a full system virus scan.

it's up to date...I think I've done a full scan after this was happening but I'lldo another later today to be safe.

I had a simular problem when I wanted to download Tony G poker one ore two months ago. During downloading their client an error appeared.

Next day I made a scan and my scan detected a trojan. That trojan was also included in a casino folder which I didn t notice before. As I remember I also had to delete some files in another folder which were added without noticing.

I was able to delete the trojan with my virusscan and till now it never came back. After cleaning I changed my passwords of all pokerclients and E-wallets.
