New Rogue: Total Defender

"A new Rogue Antivirus program called Total Defender appeared over the weekend", writes Sean-Paul Correll in PandaLabs blog. Found parasite keeps its home behind Total-Defender. com domain located in Latvia.

"An interesting thing we noticed is that the Rogue did not attempt to scare us into purchasing it, rather telling us that the computer was secure after the scan. The Rogue authors are probably doing this to keep a high amount of Rogue installations active for the purposes of data theft or for hire services", Correll states.
