PlayStation emulators for PCs are just Trojans

Playstation 2 gaming fans were targeted by Trojan linked to scareware scams.

Downloads posing as Playstation 2 emulators that let games designed for Sony's console  be played on PCs instead deliver only a Trojan.

Emulators offered via Appzkeygen(dot)com, for example, come packing the CodecPack-2GCash-Gen Trojan.

Gamers, searching for the software packages risk of being exposed to all manner of unpleasant scams.
