Trojan gives you a puritan purge

Fillets your porn, dumps your warez, purges your P2P


By Nick Farrell: Tuesday 16 May 2006, 14:33

A TROJAN seen in the wild recently does not try to load lots of spyware, it searches your hard-drive and purges it of porn.
According to the media-friendly security outfit, Sophos, the trojerazera virus turns off your firewall and then proceeds to delete any porn, warez and music in your P2P directories.

It is not clear what kick this particular virus writer is on. Perhaps he believes that he is saving the world from porn, and filesharing. Still whoever it is, the RIAA will be pleased. µ

I'd be willing to pay for this product. Just have to run it once a day before the wife does her daily scan.
