A friend called me up all panicked because his computer had gotten locked up.
The computer does its POST and goes immediately to a website page called the Privacy Center.
It scans and says there's all kinds of things wrong with his computer such as spyware, license fees, registry errors etc., and they want a clean 100 bucks to fix it all.

I told him to diconnect his Internet and wait.

It smells like a scam to get credit card numbers and info.

The page uses the URL http://dl765.privacy-update.com/licenses .

I looked this up on WHOIS.net and got nowhere, ditto Google

I went to this site and it looks like it's a parking spot for other links.

Anybody ever see this?
