Build it and they will come.

Does anyone know anything about Winferno? One of the senior managers at my company has is on his computer and it's really running slow. It's a registry cleaner. Looks like malware to me, but I haven't had time to research it yet.

A quick search does not lead me to believe Winferno is malware. He probably downloaded it because he suspected he was already infected.

Counterspy will probably remove the infection for you.

He got back to me and said he didn't install it intentionally...who knows? It's off his machine now. Thanks for your response.
