New Malware Spoofs Microsoft Security Essentials Webpage

Beware of a new malware scam that looks incredibly similar to Microsoft Security. The Rogue:MSIL/Zeven malware automatically detects your browser and issues a fake warning page. The new twist here is the use of the user’s trust in their browser integrity.

While the malware is a pretty good attempt, it's not perfect. The goal is to get the user to download and install something, shelling out some cash in the process, which neither of the three browser vendors would ever recommend.
