| Rogue application masquerades as "Microsoft Antispyware" ! |
| |
| While we have seen several Rogue Anti-Spyware applications doing rounds of the Internet, here is one which takes the cake ! Because, the website that pushes this rogue application calls itself as "Microsoft Antispyware Center"! The site in question is www(dot)maxing-search(dot)com/antispyware/ (do NOT visit this site). |

| The "Online Security Scanner" is obviously, fake too. It "detects" a few "high" rated threats and urges to remove them all. And, when a user clicks on "Remove All", a file named Setup.exe hosted at www(dot)liveupdatesnet(dot)com (do NOT visit this site too), will be prompted for download. The site is very nicely coded in CSS and it even fakes an activex scan in Firefox too. Thanks to my MVP colleague Swatkat. |
