I knew not to click on live link ~ looks like Scareware?

 

SafeWeb was quiet...WOT was quiet...NIS was quiet....FF was quiet....(FF is Sandboxie'd)

As all was quiet I thought it would be OK to snip images....maybe, on reflection.  I should have pulled connection & ctrl F4

I've never seen Scareware.

Is this Scareware or door to Scareware had I click'd on live link?

Why is site clean and green at google and at site as per Norton Site Safety. ( WOT clean and green at google and no rating at site  )

 

At pink bar text is "Your System is Infected!" and at bottom right is live link "Full system cleanup"

 

Is this really Scareware or faux Scareware?   Maybe "Smart Virus Eliminator" or variant.

 

Ran Full Scan NIS09 and on demand MBAM, SAS, A2, WinDef & Prevx ~ Clean
