Blocked URL related to Java?!?

Viruses and worms
1

I been getting a popup about a blocked URL, dont know what I should do. Here is what message says:

avast! Network Shield has blocked a harmful site.
Object: http://1279957090:8080/trk12/GdvyZzfjxi.class
Infection: URL:Mal
Process: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll

Kinda worried since Java is used for many apps.
Any help appreciated :slight_smile:
P.S. I e-mailed avast directly and e-mail response didnt help me at all. All they said was popup was correct.

does it happen all the time…or only when you are on a specific web site ?

It happens mostly when I don’t even have my web browser (IE) opened. I recently installed latest Java update, and havent seen popup since. Should I still be worried?

I just got this but instead of ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\client\jvm.dll’, it was the path for Mozilla Firefox.

I think this could be related to a Firefox add-on that I installed. Flash crashed frequently after installing it. Normaly I wouldn’t be too concerned but I noticed 8080 in the popup.

Network Shield: blocked access to malicious site 1279957090:8080:8080/trk12/StghGrzqtbk [ C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe ( 4192 ) ]

If someone knows what this is, please share. I uninstalled Firefox and am going to scan. Using avast on Win7 x64.

Thanks in advance,

Have you been opening Oracle Apps JInitiator. This could explain it,

No, why? I ran a few scans and it looks like I’m clean.
