Seems like a waste to go through all that web programming if you're too lazy to detect that a visitor is using a Mac.  In case someone wasn't convinced that this was a fake, clicking either button in the option box starts a download of an .exe.  I laugh at their fail.

They will even install VirtualPC with Windows XP and trojans pre-installed on your Mac for you.
They're just that good.

I went there on my mac, too. Someone on my Yahoo group sent an email with a link to a site that was apparently hijacked. If you tried going there there was a quick redirect to that fake AV. The exe was apparently so new that none of Jotti's online scanners flagged it.

I opened it in hexedit, but didn't find anything I recognized.

The site it redirected to had an expired domain name (a couple of weeks). The original owner was Russian.

Haha, I love these sites, and the idiotic emails about money that I apparently invested in Africa or something >.<
