Fake codec: StrCodec - VirusBurst installer
Desktop-icon of the downloaded installation-file
StrCodec seems like a new bogus codec, but, on closer review, it isn't.

It's the same one as PCodec (wich i descriped in more detail). It just has another suite on



So, don't be fooled by it's new and bright looks ...
it's just as nasty !!
