Apparently the antivirus vendor AvSoft Technologies has been hacked and the site is being used to install malicious software on visitor’s computers.
The download section of AvSoft's S-cop Web site hosts the malicious code, according to Roger Thompson, chief research officer with security vendor AVG. "They let one of their pages get hit by an iFrame injection," he said. "It shows that anyone can be a victim.... It's hard to protect Web servers properly."
With this terrible incident, people should start thinking about really securing their PC's, as said above, this could happen to anyone!
