It was discovered by us long ago that certain rogues and other types of infections are spread over the world wide web through malicious files that have the names of legitimate Windows applications. Calculator (calc.exe) is the example of such a miserable, disgusting and shameless trickery implemented by hackers today for the purpose of bringing malwares into many computers located in various parts of the world. In fact, we saw one link today that we tested on your test machine. We discovered that upon clicking this link certain malicious file is being uploaded, bearing the name of “calc.exe”. Upon its launching (execution) and rebooting of your test machine the well-know rogue antispyware called Live Security Platinum got installed onto our computer.
If you occasionally happen to see or download the file that bears the same name (calc.exe) please be careful and wise. Do not hurry up to execute it. In some cases it might contain malicious code that will eventually lead you to the point when you will install some fake antivirus. These are the tricks of the online fraudsters today, so be extremely careful not to become their victim. When you see such file it is recommended that you restrain from executing it but rather upload certain reliable anti-virus solution to scan this file for availability of virus inside of it. We recommend you to scan your PC with GridinSoft Trojan Killer in such cases. The download link for Trojan Killer is available below.
