this past three days my shop has been hammered by clients who got infected with "antivirus system pro". I have never seen an infection so prevalent. It seems to be infecting people who are very careful on the web. As of now, I have not been having any luck with successfully removing it. Has anyone else seen alot of this infection lately?

I have never seen in the last 4 years a piece of malware be so widespread in such a short period. I would love to know the vector of the infection. Very sophisticated computer users are getting infected. I do not think they are agreeing to any installations. I am just floored by this.

I keep in contact with one of my local competitors, they are the biggest computer repair shop in my town of Rochester, MN. He told me they checked in 31 computers with that same bit of malware yesterday.

WHAT COULD CAUSE THIS TO SPREAD SO EASILY?
