As an IT professional, Fake Anti-Virus software is one of the most proliffic issues we come accross on a week to week basis. At best its annoying, at worst, its dangerous and mroe importatntly from a support point of view, it can be very dificult to remove.
Sophos have just release a very interesting whitepaper about Fake AV, how it gets installed, what it does and how to spot it. They obvously want you to buy the Sophos software as the answer, but appart from that its a very useful document.

I’d not heard about Pogoplug before. Its a free cloud storage system and I’ve not yet worked out of it does anything different from the many other online storage providers. However, together with Drobo, they are currently offering 10GB of free storage to anyone who signs up before the 28th of November and you cant really turn your nose up at an offer like that!

Click the following link to get to the special sign-up page: https://pogoplug.com/drobogift10/

I’ll keep you posted on my experiences with Pogoplug.
