Honeypot Emulates Searched Attacks

My Opera is the latest prominent hosting service to be gamed by malware distributors. Google’s Code hosting service was found to be hosting and serving malicious executables. My Opera hosted a PHP based IRC botnet, according to a researcher at Kaspersky Lab. The bot appears to have originated in Brazil, based on an analysis of the code, though its not clear who posted it to the My Opera hosting service or when. In August, Web security firm zScaler found a number of malicious programs hosted on servers used to power Google Code.
