Urgent notice to BOClean users

To Quote K. McAleavey (Author of BOClean)

URGENT! Update your BOClean as QUICKLY as you can! Doubleclick the traybar icon and close it and BOClean will automatically update within four minutes or select the "Check for updates" button. Once the update is collected manually, click the "Reload/test update" button to effect the update if you're doing it manually.

The REASON for the urgency is that a new BEAST 2.05 RAT was released a couple of hours ago and it truly *is* a "beast." Because of the hype by one antitrojan vendor, over 800 copies have ALREADY been downloaded from just one of its host sites. This is a SERIOUS threat simply because of its popularity. And unlike previous versions of the "Beast," THIS ONE WORKS!

In addition to previous "features" such as firewall and antivirus destruction, the ability to inject itself into ANY process and memory, we have a VERY serious threat on the loose. To quote the author:
----------------------------------
What's new:

- LANBypass feature (reverse connection)
- plugin system
- speeded up the transfers (recoded from scratch)
- DialUp passwords support
- better multithreading
- statistics window
- multilanguage help
- many improvements: Screen Manager, KeyLogger, FileManager etc.
- fixes: 9x crashes (with email notification), webcam etc.
-------------------------------

PLEASE UPDATE YOUR BOCLEAN IMMEDIATELY so that you're covered as always. At the time of this alert, none of the other antitrojan or antivirus vendors have dealt with the new "Beast."

Six new nasties today for a total of 2641 UNIQUE trojans (15,047 trojans, rootkits, adware, spyware, keyloggers and other malware in total, including all variants) covered in today's update for BOClean 4.11. Come and get it at:

»www.nsclean.com/update.html

Doubleclick on your BOClean traybar icon and select "check for update" to have BOClean 4.11 automatically collect and install your update for you. BOClean 4.11 can perform an autoupdate if configured to do so. If you have problems with the autoupdate program, check your firewall settings - we use passive FTP download instead of the more conventional HTTP method and some firewalls may refuse to allow the program to connect unless you set rules to permit the BOClean autoupdate program to collect them. Please consult your firewall's instructions on how to do this if the update program is stopped or crashed by your firewall.

You can also click down below to download directly from this email if your security settings permit by using the link below:

»ftp://ftp.nsclean.com/pub/411upd.exe (BOClean 4.11)

Click the above to download. The update is safe to run from the internet if you'd like for automatic install from this email.

Please also note that if you ever miss an update (or several) the update you collect includes *ALL* previous update information. There is no need to go hunting down other updates. The current one is always complete.

Just finished writing the "book report" on it ... it won't be "officially" up on our site until our webmaster gets in in about another two hours or so and links it, but here it is for the curious now ...
