Xbox Emulator is Really a Trojan Horse

People are being tricked into downloading malicious code masquerading
as an Xbox emulator; what actually gets installed on their PCs
is a Trojan horse program called Net BUIE.exe, which subsequently
connects to remote servers. The program could be reaping money for
someone through pay-per-clicks. It also connects to four servers run
by Microsoft. The site from which the Trojan was downloaded has been
pulled off the Internet.
