Misleading marketing (yet again): InstallQ, Amonetize, bechiroapps.com

I know this isn't a surprise anymore, but it still annoys the hell out of me.

Whilst following a malware trail, I found 3 more examples of misleading marketing. One of them on depositfiles.com, and 2 of them on zippyshare.com. In all 3 cases, the route went through adsmarket.com (also not a surprise).

First we have a fake flash player. This was loaded by;

hxxp://www76.zippyshare.com/pop.jsp?a=1

And goes straight to a download at (domains PD houses the same thing too);

hxxp://www.adobeflashplayeryukle.com/dl.php

No landing page, no warnings.



And InstallIQ, and you'll notice (follow the red arrow), the fake "plugin required" advert;



Which leads to the landing page here;
