Read here about how PC World found out about the new variant of Fake Antivirus and how it takes over PC's.
This is one area where everyone must be vigilant in defending there computer. Being a good product that's free, MSE makes a very good target for Fakers to fake.
Interestingly enough, Symatec and other anti-malware purveyors have really downplayed MSE as a worthless product. However, independent labs like Consumers Reports and a German agency AV-Test.org's results have given MSE high marks in doing it's job! Gee maybe there is some reporting bias there! Read here about AV-Test's results and see for your self.
In short, don't take your anti-virus for granted as their are those in the world who would take advantage of you! Be vigilant in how you deal with your anti-malware programs as there is a large amount of money involved in trying to keep you sedated and paying one way or another!
