Starforce saga goes on

Just when you thought StarForce couldn’t become even more ridiculous, the company has set up a fake security research website to pretend that their ‘software’ is safe to use have installed on your computer without your knowledge or consent. Is this simply paranoia? (many of the groups that say Microsoft software is secure are accused of being M$ fronts, rather than simply wrong!) Well, er… no. The domain name resolves (in a WHOIS query) to the same IP address as the actual officially acknowledged Starforce domain. If that press release wasn’t from two days ago, you would almost think it was an April Fools joke.
