Fake Safer-Networking website

[m00nbl00d]

When searching for something related to malware, I came across this website -www.safer-networking.com- (The - is to prevent anyone to click on it.)

I still haven't entered it, because I'm not using my own system, and therefore not working with any virtual machine, but after doing some research, it is known to be a site distributing fake security software, and in this case trying to be Safer-Networking.org.

http://hosts-file.net/?s=safer-networking.com

http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/safer-networking.com

-Edit-

It seems to be already covered by Spybot's hosts file. According to http://hosts-file.net/?s=safer-networking.com it exists since 2007. This clearly shows that a hosts file is not that useless.

Hello,

Thanks for reporting.
As you have already said we have that site in our detection rules.
So do not forget to immunize your system with Spybot - Search & Destroy.

Best regards
