Smitfraud

Asked by David-Howard in Spyware / Ad Blockers, Networking Security Vulnerabilities, Operating Systems Network Security

Tags: Smitfraud

History:
I know that Smitfraud has been around a while. I just read about a variant with a red bio-hazard background, locks the user out of the Control Panel, etc.
Two requests for this post.
1) I would like to know if there is a one stop fix for ALL variants.
2) I would also like to know if anyone is familiar with this site.
http://smitfraud.org/ (I'm quite certain that the recommended XoftSpy isn't what it seems.)
Luckily I have avoided the Smitfraud experience. And I want as much information on this thing as possible. For instance, how do I KNOW that after a tool is run against it, that it is really gone and has not turned my system into a bot, etc.?
Thanks all.
And yes, RPGamerGirl I'm looking forward to your 2 cents. :-)
David
