Kaspersky Accused Of Using Fake Malware To Sabotage Competing Antivirus Software

Quote:The allegation is that Kaspersky Lab had select employees purposely inject bad code into normal, common files, so that its competitors could pick them up as malicious, and in the worst case, delete them from a user's PC. That could result in broken software or perhaps even a broken operating system.

ESET NOD has been doing that for ages. I believe this is not the first time kaspersky has been accused.

These were actually employees that quit the firm claiming this. There is no evidence of this happening either. As if an AV company hasn't got enough malware already in the wild to deal with?
