"One scareware vendor, Topsale2.ru, says on its website that it only accepts traffic from the US, Canada and Australia and pays up to $US25 commission for each fake anti-virus software sale. It says the average member can make a $US4916 commission in 11 days. "We can see how a successful webmaster can make over $US180,000 per year on this network alone from traffic averaging 10,000 visits per day," Samosseiko wrote." |

| 814737 | 2009-09-28 09:57:00 | It may be a conspiracy theory but I have the feeling that Symantec and McAffee employ people to write malware. I could well be wrong and maybe I'm just paranoic. In all the time I have owned a PC I got one virus only. That was in the 1980s. I had been sharing info regarding work hours and jobs with my boss via a 3.5 floppy and rebooted my PC with his return floppy in the A:\ drive. Whoops. Your computer is stoned..... Did not take long to get rid of it but I was infected once. No internet back then. |
