Internet Security Essentials is a re-branded version of Smart Internet Protection 2011 rogueware. What does this rogue program actually do? It just copies several random files into the %UserProfile% directory and then "flags" those files as malware. Some of the files that can be listed as malicious software: PE.exe, DBOLE.exe, CLSV.tmp, kernel32.exe, std.dll, grid.sys. Furthermore, Internet Security Essentials changes your Windows settings to use a proxy server that will not allow you to browse any or certain web pages. It also modifies Windows Hosts files and may even block other programs on your computer. Last, but not least, Internet Security Essentials displays fake security warnings and notifications saying that your computer is infected with dangerous malware or under attack from a remote computer.
