The domain redirects to the following site:

wwwDOTinicomDOTdk which shows the following text:

QuoteWarning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'inicom_db'@'dish5011.net.ibizdns.com' (using password: YES) in /home/domains/inicom.dk/web/framework/class.database.php on line 61

The domain itself is registered with register.com

Does this mean much? Not really sure at this point until the inicom.dk redirect is fixed so that there is something to see other than the error above. From the information so far I can not draw any conclusions about the company and products they provide, but I would hold off on this product for more detailed analysis.

It might also be interesting to submit the site to the SWW crew for investigation...

I'm wondering if this isn't the product in question; http://www.spamfighter.com/Spywarefighter/

If so, it claims to be a scan/remove tool but it only weighs 400k. I can't imagine any signature based tool that could function without a db and engine individually more sizeable than that. It also claims to use heuristical detection. That claim by any tool always causes me concern. I haven't looked at it tho. Someone asked me about it a couple days ago and I found very little real info on the site I linked.

Unfortunately, since I'm busy/taxed with a web dev project now, I won't have the time to give it a good look for the next few days. I'd be interested in hearing any comments from others. With their other products SpamFighter and VirusFighter, my first impression is that they are not legit.

Here's a quick dig on the site I linked;

Well the question now becomes "how did you hear about the product Sloth_Loves_Chunk?" Did you just stumble on it; recieve an offer? If you recieved an offer was it a solicited advertisement?

IF this is the same product can you verify?
