"Perfect Security" malware deserves it's own dark corner of Hell

Let me make something perfectly clear - Hell is a real place, and I'm convinced that the authors of the malware software package known as "Perfect Security" have a special little corner reserved.

Why? I recently discovered this little gem on the computer of a friend. Masquerading as something that looked deceptively similar to Windows Security Center, it managed to get installed and hijack web requests, disable CLI access, and generally slow the affected computer to a grinding halt.

I know, I know...that really is par for the course for this type of software, right? Nope - these jokers take the cake because if you attempt to remove the application via Add/Remove Programs, you are shown a dialog that informs you that you're using the unregistered version, and because of that *uninstallation is not available*, and you're required to go online to purchase an activation key! It actually tries to make you drop almost $60 just to uninstall!

I couldn't believe the audacity of whoever developed this garbage, but I can tell you one thing. Their mommas are *not* proud.
