SpyHeal becomes VirusHeal
June 26th, 2007 by AndyAtHull… And chuck in a fake codec for good measure.
Whilst I wait to get completely flooded, yes that is our street, I shall waste my time telling you about a new rogue.
If you’re a regular reader of this blog or by chance came to our blog via the search engines you may know about SpyHeal, which is an old rogue by comparison to what we have been getting. It now seems this one has been renamed to something else as well.

The good guys over at SunBelt (click for screenies) also mention this one comes with a fake codec called DVDaccess.
It’s also no real surprise that this is a Inhoster/Estdomains setup. The whois informs us that!
So if you have been affected by this rogue in anyway get yourself in our forum for free help. In the mean time chat about this one here. Removal Guides will be added shortly.
