InfiniNet - 46% Detection Rate *

Did you just stumble upon a download or a file on your computer that is digitally signed by InfiniNet? Some of the security products refers to the detected files as Adware.BrowseFox.BH and Gen:Variant.Adware.BHO.Agent.4. The detection rate for the InfiniNet files collected here is 46%. Please read on for more details.

You'll probably see InfiniNet when double-clicking to run the file. The publisher name shows up as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:

As you can see in the screenshot above, the Windows OS reports that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by InfiniNet and that no one has tampered with the file.
