Gromozon.com and Italian spaghetti

Gromozon.com and Italian spaghetti
<p>Over the last few weeks we've been tracking attacks coming from Gromozon.com. These attacks have actually been happening for a few months now, but the number of reports has recently escalated. In particular, a variety of Italian blogs and message boards have been spammed with links to hundreds of different URLs over the last week. These URLs all eventually point to gromozon.com and after an extensive trail of code downloading other code, one ends up infected with <a href="http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2006-082416-2803-99">LinkOptimizer</a>, which dials a high-cost phone number and then displays advertisements when browsing the Internet.</p>
