    Yep, there are about 4 or 5 rampant new ones with the fake security
    alert. Some link to the MrAntiSpy and others to the AntiVermins
    affiliate download. We did an update today to handle those.

    Sunbelt said in their blog that "The latest version of CounterSpy (or the
    CounterSpy 2.0 beta) should remove them just fine." yet they don't even
    detect the setup files. The install.exe below is from the spysheriff.com
    website which is old.
