    Default Worm: ACAD/Medre.A

    Malware threat.

    "ACAD/Medre.A is also known as: ALisp/Blemfox.A (Microsoft), Trojan.Acad.Bursted.W (BitDefender), ALS.Bursted.B (Symantec)."

    Please see this link for detailed information.

    The August 2012 issue of Desktop Engineering reports that the malware steals then sends opened AutoCAD drawings to a recipient with an email account in China. While AutoDesk does acknowledge that the file is sent via email it fails to specifically mention China.

    Here is a link to the DE article.

    The Autodesk article does mention it?
