New Rogue: DrGuard

by LS Anders on March 3rd, 2010 in Rogues, Security Alert.

DrGuard is a new rogue anti-virus application. It is a clone of PaladinAntivirus.














DrGuard spreads by using fake alerts and fake infections. It tries to trick the user into licensing the software in order to remove these fake threats.

Ad-Aware will detect DrGuard as Win32.FraudTool.DrGuard and Win32.FraudTool.PaladinAntivirus.
