[QUOTE="Shadowra, post: 976200, member: 92939"] I had downloaded a keygen in 2008 on a dubious site which destroyed the files of Windows XP :D The antivirus at the time (McAfee) had not seen anything.... And in 2011 when I wanted to test a file with Microsoft Security Essentials.... I got the Rogue FakeAV MS Security... I had to pass Eset and Malwarebytes to remove it..... And to think that the av I had before MSE (Coranti 2011) detected it... [/QUOTE]
