Pay Your Porn Bill!

McAfee’s Avert labs has an amusing post about a crazy, aggressive popup reminder that will completely take over your PC if you don’t pay for your hardcore porno account.

Even though the user agreement states the terms, most people don’t bother to read such nonsense and want to get right to the fun stuff. But by agreeing to the text and downloading and installing the “authentication” tool, you are actually downloading a utility that will keep you from using your own PC if you don’t pay your bill on time!

From Avert Labs here:

They are claiming the right to disrupt and potentially completely disable use of your computer as a means to compel payment. Depending on the current display resolution of the system the locked billing popup can indeed obscure things to the point of making it unusable. The popup window will automatically restore itself if resized or moved. It also carries the “always on top” attribute, so it will cover other desktop elements or application windows.
