3 Indicted in $100m Rogue Antivirus Ring


The guys behind AntiVir 2009 and other fake antivirus programs have been charged with multiple counts of wire fraud.

Three men have been indicted in what the FBI described as an international cybercrime operation that sold $100 million in rogue antivirus software to victims in more than 60 countries.

Good. I lost count the number of times I had some one making the mistake of downloading that program. Thankfully I only had about a handful that paid for these fake products.

As harper said I have seen enough of this infection to last a life time, I am just glad the law is doing something about it.
