Trojan:JS/IframeRef.I is a Trojan that spreads as a malicious JavaScript file, which is added into malicious or hijacked websites via an iFrame. The aim of the file is to reroute the compromised web browser to other malicious websites that may drop other malware threats onto the infected computer, often by exploiting software vulnerabilities. Trojan:JS/IframeRef.I activates links within iFrames while viewing web content on modified websites. To bypass the detection of anti-virus software, the size of the iFrame may be only one pixel. When an Internet user visits a website that includes Trojan:JS/IframeRef.I, the Internet browser is diverted to another website that may drop other malware infections onto the vulnerable machine.
