Despite urging from anti-virus firm Sophos, Whirlpool has not cleaned up a malware infection at its site Kitchenaid.com.

"The kitchen utensil selling site remains infected with the Badsrc-C (AKA Asprox) strain of malware five months after a Sophos customer reported a problem, which the security firm forwarded to the white goods firm," writes The Register's John Leyden.

"The malicious script points towards nowhere at present, so there isn't an immediate risk," Leyden writes. "The problem is that this may change at any time, hence the need for remedial action that Whirlpool seems reluctant to take."
