Is there any kind of known vulnerability for multiplayer gamers?

Asked by sexygeek in Anti-Virus, Networking Security Vulnerabilities, Action/Adventure Games

Tags: Virus malware worms multiplayer games vulnerabilities

We have a virus removal customer who is getting repeat infections. Their son plays Grand Theft Auto (purchased at a store) and spends a lot of time doing it in multi-player mode. Being familiar with the perils of file sharing I was wondering if there are any known worms plaguing players of this or other multi-player games?

One of the Trojans detected by Kaspersky is: trojan-downloader.multi.musldr.c, which sounds like some sort of multi thing. The fake alert programs virus they have looks like the one people get using Limewire - so I keep thinking this is some sort of file sharing worm.
