Segurazo spyware
« on: December 08, 2019, 11:38:02 PM »
A tasty little morsel of spyware by Segurazo managed to inveigle its way past Avast 19.8 onto a newly installed Windows 10.  Funny thing that all those years my friend was running Windows XP and nothing like that previously happened.  She hadn't a clue it was there until I sussed it.  I guess it came in via her web browser.

Thanks for that Pondus.  Segurazo is said to be a PUP and my friend's installation of Avast is configured to catch PUPs. It missed this one.
