#184089 - fake windows Responding to: ???'s previous message |

Some malignant code explicitly opens fake windows claiming that the web browser have performed an invalid memory access and needs to be closed. Another common one is to claim that a virus has been detected, and offer to "clean" it... Often these are very well presented to look very much like a genuine antivirus warning... |
