Illegal Keygen for Reputed Antivirus Comes Bundled with Malware

Pirated software is common practice for crooks to use pirated software as a means of disseminating malware. Bitdefender spotted a similar scenario last week, when crooks started using the latest Internet Security avtivirus product from Trustport as bait for malware dissemination.

Afterwards, it deploys a keylogger and a backdoor component on the compromised computer.”]
