McAfee today announced it has released a new version of McAfee Stinger, which targets two Windows-based threats that are still being identified on video iPod and MP3 devices.
McAfee Stinger is a free standalone utility tool that can detect and remove specific viruses, including the W32/RJump.worm, also named RJump.worm and the W32/QQPass.worm, also named QQPass.worm. Protection for both threats has been available in McAfee products since September 25, 2006 and August 15, 2006, respectively, but Avert Labs has made the tool available for consumers who may not already have adequate anti-virus protection.
The W32/RJump.worm, which was discovered June 20, 2006, recently reappeared on video iPod devices released by Apple late September, as noted earlier today.
