Fake Windows PC Cleaner Drops AZORult Info-Stealing Trojan

Researchers have discovered a web site pushing a PC cleaner tool for Windows that in reality is just a front for the Azorult password and information stealing Trojan. The site, which is still up as of this writing, is well made and looks like any other legitimate program that they created. G-Cleaner is a Windows junk cleaner that removes temporary files, broken shortcuts, and unnecessary Registry entries. When installed it attempts to steal a user’s browser passwords, FTP client passwords, desktop files, and cryptocurrency wallets, and much more.
