Hey guys !

This is my first report, for a domain name I did not see a report on your forum.

http://topix21century.com
https://topix21century.com

I don't know how to classify this kind of attack, but according to McAfee Labs, "in this attack, vulnerable users are directed to a malicious webpage that downloads and executes a file named notes.exe or svohost.exe (classified as BackDoor-EMN) in drive-by download fashion (visiting the page is enough to get infected)."

I already added those two domains in my personnal blocked hosts file.

I don't know this domain's exact IP Adress, because I don't want to infect my own pc looking for this information.
