APcSecure is a Rogue! Beware!

I thought the New Year will be the end of the old threats to your computers. However, I just wished that for 2010. However, these evil hackers do not seem to be on the way to stop their activities. On the contrary, they keep expanding their forces and changing names of the roguewares they create.
These aren't any exceptions as well: APcSecure, PcsSecure, APcSafe, and a huge list of others which I can't even remember because all these titles keep appearing on the web every single day.
All in all, the latest one and a rather popular one, unfortunately, is APcSecure. As other Winisofts, APcSecure has its own website and is promoted through different fake websites.
Don't ever trust it. I almost got this infection several days ago because of my blindness. NOD license has expired and I was just looking for some files on rapidlibrary. Luckily, APcSecure wasn't hiding in the video codec I downloaded from that site.
You'd be more careful. That's my advice.

P.S. if you need more information on APcSecure, follow this link.
