Comment:
Found bundled with 7 other adware products including a dialer from another website. The infection comes in the guise of winlogin.exe from this site: vxiframe.biz/adverts/progs/winlogon.exe. If you Google the file name it will yield a perfectly legitimate file from Windows. However, the contents of the file refer to this location C:\Program Files\SpywareNo\SpywareNo.exe.
