Jesper M. Johansson’s eight page article at The Register is a good read.

I sbscribed as they advertised as especially for Ultimate Antiviral XP2008 software/virus removal tool with support for any failure.
The program is a SCAM, doesnt work and I suspect a connection to the virus infection as well.
Their support is non existant with instructions that do not work , no contact address or phone and nothing but sales works by email internet.
BEWARE a WORTHLESS CURE vor UAV XP2008

EnigmaSoftware(WORTHLESS)
BEWARE their SPYHUNTER is worthless for UAC XP2008.
Their support system is goofy and impossible to follow .
They have no contacts except by internet. One suggests UK as home and another Minnesota and neither use ENIGMA for payment. VISA COMPLAINTS abound

I’m not sure what your comment has to do with Jesper’s article at The Register. :|
