Quick analysis of a webpage leveraging CVE-2010-1885 (aka the help and support center vulnerability)

Goodgirlsbadguys.com (213.155.12.144) is a domain registered on July 19 2010 with a registrant address listed in Cambodia. Visiting a particular webpage for that domain (trust me and don’t go there) returns a URL as part of an iframe. Microsoft Help and Support Center is invoked with a few parameters, one of which is the URL obtained earlier. Later, the command line utility is invoked to run scriptand kill Windows Media Player.”]
