High volume counts usually represent a popular threat but may or may not have infected a large number of systems. High detection count threats could lay dormant and have a low volume count. Criteria for Volume Count is relative to a daily detection count.

HTML/Redir.EB.8 is a JavaScript Trojan that is a component of a spam malware campaign linked to Craigslist and eFax Corporate. HTML/Redir.EB.8 is distributed via spam eFax Corporate and Craigslist emails. Spammers are using a combination of social engineering methods to fool attacked computer users into opening emails that incorporate malware infections, namely HTML/Redir.EB.8. The bogus emails are allegedly sent by Craigslist via eFax Corporate. The fake emails, which are not connected with either Craigslist or eFax, announce recipients that they've received a fax of 24 pages. However, the attachment of the unsolicited Craigslist or eFax email messages is not a fax, but an .HTML file which involves a malevolent JavaScript code. While being executed, the script downloads a malware infection, found as HTML/Redir.EB.8, onto the targeted PC.
