This is nothing new, but to make a quick follow up on Olaiz’s previous post, I’m a bit ByteDefender. I am always impressed with the way these cybercrooks create a name for their rogueware.
Let’s take a look at some of the samples captured and published o autovin website.

These people take their work very seriously. If you take a look at Antivirus Soft, you can even see they have their own slogan: “Innovative Protection for your PC”. Either they got a marketing team with them, or they are really good at faking things (faking an antimalware software is considered as one).
When is this going to end?
