You must be confusing this malware with a legitimate tool. Naming fraudulent programs after real tools is a common practice used by scammers to trick people into purchasing a useless thing.

Sorry – that was meant to be Norman. I have been trying to work out if this is rogue software or not. A colleague has been in touch with the director, who says there are 2 Virus Fighters around, and one of them is rogue, but he is not going to attempt to sort it out for the sake of his customers. Some responsibility huh?
