FakeAV - Rogue variant that spoofs Microsoft Security Essentials circulating

QUOTE: However, there's a rogue security product out there that claims to be "Microsoft Security Essentials". It has nothing to do with Microsoft.  This malware is distributed via drive-by-download attacks. And not only does this fake tool steal Microsoft's brand, it also features a bizarre matrix display of 32 antivirus products, offering to locate you a tool that would be capable of fixing your machine as "Microsoft Security Essentials" can't clean the malware it found. In reality, this is all fake, and the tool has not found an infection in the fail it claims.
