My Opera Found To Host Malware

The My Opera free Web hosting service is hosting malicious code, just the latest prominent hosting service to be gamed by malware distributors. My Opera, a free online hosting service for users of the Opera Web browser, played host to 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, Google s Code hosting service was found to be hosting and serving malicious programs.
