    Two types of new scams are doing the rounds, these arn't the usual ones we normally hear about.

    CyberDefender is a different type of rogue application that ALL the other AV's seem to miss.

    Wonder if it's because Prevx latched onto this scam quickly and included the files, or their detection is a lot better in some way/s ?

    Prevx nails CyberDefender, but still not detecting testOrtexGroup.exe from yet another variation of a scam, even though it was sent to them several days ago ? This scam is more devious :(

    Full marks on CyberDefender though :thumb:
