ROSTPAY - 4% Detection Rate *

Did you just run into a download or a file on your computer that is digitally signed by ROSTPAY? Some of the security products refers to the detected files as Win32:Agent-AYCR [PUP] and Program.Unwanted.328. The detection rate for the ROSTPAY files collected here is 4%. Please read on for more details.

You'll probably notice ROSTPAY when double-clicking to run the file. The publisher name is displayed as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:
