Scareware Scammers gets $163 million fine, this is one for us good guys who really remove the crap installed on computers.
I wish they would fine them 1 day with hey moe and his "ready aim fire"
this would stop em.

95% of my PC Repair business is removing malware from people's computers. But there are some user's that just don't have common sense, like a client who clicked on the "Free System Scan", got infected then called the company and gave them her credit card information. DUH!!!

Malware/Spyware/Virus/Trojan and what else are driving people away from computers into tablets, but wait until the tablets get popular and the infections will start.

That is already in the works.
