We have seen lot of rogue security application using the same code and almost similar tactics to scam the users.

Lately we saw XP Deluxe Protector rogue security application using an old fake/scare scanner template which was extensively used by the Antivirus 2008 rogue variants in early 2008.

Screenshot of classic Scare/Fake scan page template used by XP Deluxe Protector

The installer pushed by the fake scanner page then displays a fake Windows Security Alert which further downloads and installs XP Deluxe Protector rogue security application
