Security vendor Trend Micro's Web site was hacked earlier this week in an attack that spread to hundreds of other sites, according to an InfoWorld report.
The malicious code tries to embed software that steals passwords from users as they visit Web sites, according to the report.
Trend Micro discovered the attack on Wednesday and took steps to shut it down. It affected about 20,000 Web pages written with Microsoft's Active Server Pages Web development software.
Trend Micro also provided a video demonstration of what the attack looks like from the end user's perspective.
