Trojan.Yoddos is a malicious Trojan that reduces Internet Explorer's security and communicates with a remote server to receive configurations and instructions from attackers. Trojan.Yoddos can either go on and execute a denial of service attack against a particular website, or download other malicious files onto your computer system and cause an even greater threat.
