Bogus Streaming Video Prompt

Landing on the following site the visitor is presented with yet another bogus prompt ...

Naturally they have rigged all the links on the page to only play sound files ... this way some users are tricked into installing this bogus "streaming video player" ... which is not what you actually get ... be careful out there folks ...

i used a dev pc to test the site and after installing the malware the movies worked!!!!!

maybe this is the beginning of a new tactic ( ie providing sound clips when the file isnt installed but after installation playing the movie) i will have to keep an eye on this one
