Virus Report June 5 2009
AntivirusDoktor is designed to make users believe their computer is infected. This tool performs a false scan of the infected system. AntivirusDoktor then offers users the option to eliminate the malware by purchasing a paid version of the fake antivirus software.
Sinowal.WHZ is a trojan distributed via email that reports to have come from UPS. The email informs the user that the UPS servicde was unable to deliver the packet sent to a recipient on a specific date. Once the user opens the attached file, a trojan is copied in to their computer that steals the infected users bank details!
