Security firm Sophos has recently warned netizens to be cautious of fake antivirus software that pretends itself as a free 30-day trial of McAfee VirusScan Plus. Graham Cluley, Senior Technology Consultant at Sophos, said that the company's spam traps seized a wave of malicious emails that alleged to offer the virtual McAfee trial. Instead, it delivered malicious cargo naming as Mal/FakeAV-El, as reported by Tom's Guide on July 28, 2010. The e-mail says: "Download a FREE 30-day Trial of MCAfee VirusScan Plus and Be Automaticaly Entered to Win. Installation file attached". The file attached with the mail is a setup.zip.
