This seems to be what everyone is missing:

 "GETTING TO A HELPLESS PERSON WHO'S COMPUTER IS UNABLE TO REACH ANY SITE
OR DOWNLOAD ANY PROGRAM TO AID THEM".

Thus, we have thought on "obfuscation" of the links to such sites and or
tools. Any "www.malware-help.com" DNS common sites are "blocked".

"AV-CLOUDS", "DNSSEC" do not provide for "after" the infection of those
that have not received "clients" or "resolvers" prior to infections. They
are real problems NOW!

How does Grandma get help? She takes to "such and such" for $200 dollar
who for get to say "oh, take your family pics off", wipe her drive and
reload the pc. She tryed to go to AV and other scan sites but instead the
browser took her to "wifes lonely and horny".

Understand now?


I appreciate what you are trying to formulate, but for various reasons, I
am not sure it is even entirely possible.

Good luck. :-)
