EST Domains, deja vu

Researching, I paid a visit to the rogue site ‘pc-antispypro’ which promptly ran a scan and informed me I had 14 unspecified infections. Which didn’t vary on another clean machine.

Not as dramatic as most rogues that give dire warnings of infections in the hundreds, none the less the .exe carried a payload named by Antivir as TR/Dropper.Gen.

First, one is presented with the EULA and a click yes to download.

If one ignored the anti virus program’s warning.
