 We've stopped counting the rip-offs I guess, but here is a really nasty new one: TermineXor. It's 99% Spybot-S&D, just hidden under a different name and icon. Otherwise, the guy is completely identical, as is our detection database in this illegal clone. They even use our update server, but have changed the donation link to their own website.
The other 1% that comes with TermineXor is a small piece of malware - www.terminexor.com is registered by Flashpoint Media, Ltd., located on the Bermudas. You may already know this company from BroadcastPC and RVP - two malware products.
This is actually the first time I've seen an anti-spyware application ripped off and bundled with spyware itself. We will try to have their site closed down asap, and see what legal steps can be taken against a company that tries to evade law by establishing off-shore. |
