QUOTE:
'ZeuS, SpyEye and Palevo are infamous families of malware. These types of malware are spread mainly through drive-by downloads and phishing schemes. They are so-called Trojan horses which are designed to steal credentials from various online services like social networks (such as Facebook, Hi5, Yahoo, Netlog), online banking accounts (phising), ftp-accounts, email-accounts and other. They are part of botnets that are estimated to include millions of compromized computers.

These types of malware are notoriously difficult to detect or to remove from any computer. Even if a user has an up-to-date antivirus program installed, computers still can become infected.

Because your antivirus program is not always giving you enough protection against these types of malware, we have decided to create a program that can be used as an extra layer of security.

'Mirage Anti-Bot will at first only protect against ZeuS. Blocking of other malware (SpyEye and Palevo) will be added soon. Mirage Anti-Bot will be downloading and installing one or more blocklists from www.abuse.ch, a Swiss-based anti-malware website. This effectively stops your computer from reaching infected sites, thus minimizing the risk to be infected with this extremely dangerous type of malware.

Mirage Anti-Bot is free and we designed it to be simple to install and easy to use. It can run quietly and efficiently in the background so you don't have to worry about interruptions or making updates.

We aim to add more cool features over time.'

So at your downloads!..

The download is hosted on brothersoft, Not exactly a site with a good reputation. I'd avoid downloading from there.

Online Tool Developed to Check for Botnet Activity:

Bot Net Checker: botnetchecker.com : http://botnetchecker.com/ - It will tell you the current state of your PC about possible presence of botnet ..

Here: Bot activity not detected (0). Bot traffic from IP was not detected in our honeynets.
Please check back any time your computer is acting up.

'"It is estimated that up to one quarter of all personal
computers connected to the internet are part of a botnet."
"After attempting to notify thousands of owners about automated bot activity coming from their compromised computers, it was obvious this is a growing problem and a solution was needed."

The majority of the public is not even aware that their computers have been infected and are a part of botnet activity.

If Bot activity was detected from your IP, please check
your computer/s for a rootkit, worm, Trojan horse, or backdoor ssl key.'

'A botnet is a group of computers (bots) networked together and controlled by someone other than the owner of the computer. Systems Security Administrator Rusty Crawford states, "After attempting to notify thousands of owners about automated bot activity coming from their compromised computers, it was obvious this is a growing problem and a solution was needed. The majority of the public is not even aware that their computers have been infected and are a part of botnet activity."

Botnetchecker.com has developed a "honeynet" to detect and analyze bot activity. As new bots are detected, they are added to the lists at botnetchecker.com. It is free to visit botnetchecker.com and just by visiting the site an IP will be cross checked for bot activity. If botnetchecker.com detects bot activity a red warning is shown on the screen. Links are provided to information and tools that can help safely remove the offending programs from the infected computer.

Botnetchecker.com does not block anything. It is simply a free tool to help identify if the computer IP used is, or has been, involved in botnet activities on the internet. Botnetchecker.com obviously does not have a list for every bot on the internet but the "honeynet" is detecting new ones all the time. Crawford recommends book marking and using botnetchecker.com on a regular basis.

Visit botnetchecker.com today and see if the computer you are using is working for you and not someone else.'
