Hello again, sorry for being slow on the posting lately. I blame it on the cold I caught last week. Anyway, just wanted to give you the heads up on a publisher called PSK LOGEUM LLC, that according to the embedded certificate appears to be located in Russia.
The reason I’m writing this blog post is that the PSK LOGEUM LLC file is detected by a few on the anti-virus programs. McAfee report it as BehavesLike.Win32.Dropper.ch and Qihoo reports it as Win32/Rootkit.Rootkig.7e5.
When I tested the PSK LOGEUM LLC file it installed an adware called BlockAndSurf.
Did you also find a PSK LOGEUM LLC file? What kind of download was it? If you remember the download link, please post it in the comments below.
Thanks for reading.

CONTENT ADVERTIZED: 2014 Japanese F! race video file. However, it was a .exe so I deleted it.
I wish I read this sooner. After executing a program from them, i could no longer connect to any network.
Almost every file I download and try to install through utorrent has the PSK Logeum LLC signature. It’s almost impossible to get anything from piratebay that doesn’t have it. So I’ve NEVER downloaded anything from there.
