An Amanzimtoti man who is using a "Trojan horse" defence against allegations that he had more than 1 000 child pornography images on his computer, had anti-virus software and firewalls installed on his hard drive.
This was the evidence on Monday of Inspector Susanne Barnard, of the South African Police Service's Technical Support Unit, who testified at the trial of Mark Rawlinson.
Rawlinson has pleaded not guilty to 1 159 charges of possession of child pornography and one count of allowing children to view the pornography.
He claims that his computer was infested with viruses and that it was possible that a hacker had downloaded the images without his knowledge while he was on the Internet. This is done using a "Trojan horse" virus.
It is believed this is the first time such a defence has been raised in South Africa.
Because of the technical nature of the evidence, the presiding officer, Durban regional court Magistrate Trevor Levitt, is being assisted by a computer expert, Ian Melamud.
Rawlinson, 36, also has a computer expert in court, while the prosecutor, Val Lotan, will be relying on the evidence of Barnard and her boss, Senior Superintendent Beau Grobler, the commander of the Technical Support Unit.
On Monday Barnard said that after she had received the computer confiscated from Rawlinson, she had used forensic software to make a mirror image of the hard drive so that she had a "working copy" of it. She said in this way, nothing could be removed or tampered with.
On examining the copy, she had found images on the desktop, in the "my pictures" folder, in the "deleted files" folder and in the temporary Internet file.
More than 1 000 pictures were of children without clothes on and most had been downloaded from the Internet.
She said she had also discovered that a Norton Anti-Virus package had been installed on the computer in May 2005 which, she said, was activated every time the computer was switched on and warned the user if a site was infected.
"The computer also had a firewall to prevent people from hacking in," she said.
During cross-examination, defence attorney Sam Garbaran suggested that the computer had been tampered with, saying the hard drive and stiffy drive were now in a different order on the tower.
He said there were "screw marks" on the box just above the stiffy drive.
Barnard agreed that had the computer been "manipulated" before she had made the working copy, those manipulations would have been duplicated on to her copy.
She also conceded that she had not looked for viruses "because my instruction was to look only for child pornography".
Earlier in the trial, a 14-year-old neighbour of Rawlinson testified that while looking at family pictures on Rawlinson's computer, a pornographic image of a man and woman having sex had appeared on the screen.
She said she had been "disgusted and uncomfortable".

The fake notification that can be encountered on various malicious websites
Pornographic virus alert from Microsoft is a scam that uses social engineering in order to make users believe that their computers were found to be infected with viruses by Microsoft and, because of that, been locked. The message is usually presented in a pop-up and can be encountered on Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, or any other browser. Typically, users are presented with the virus alert from Microsoft pop-up because of adware.
The alert from Microsoft virus claims that the computer of the site visitor has been blocked due to a computer infection from a porn site. Users are prompted to call fake tech support at (888) 732-1022, (888) 731-102, or any other number for help. As evident, the alert has nothing to do with Microsoft, viruses, or pornographic sites, as it is simply a scam engineered to make users provide remote access to their machine or pay for fake tech support services.
Just like VIRUS ALERT FROM MICROSOFT , this virus alert from Microsoft is a tech support scam that can lead you to numerous issues, e.g., identity theft, money loss, the loss of personal information, and similar problems. After receiving a call from you, threat actors typically try to get remote access to your computer system by installing the Team Viewer or similar remote access software.
The fake pop-up may appear after you install a potentially unwanted program (PUP) on your system. In most cases, such intruders spread around unnoticed because of the bundling method used to fill freeware installers with optional components and earn some money from it. As a result, the PUP hiding behind “Pornographic virus alert from Microsoft” modifies web browsers to start showing one of these scams and fake alerts:
Just like these tech support scams, [1] the alert warns its victim that the computer system was infected due to unsafe adult website browsing. As a solution, the scammers suggest calling a provided phone number, which is claimed to be from Microsoft.
Additionally, Pornographic threat alert threatens its victims that there is a risk of having financial and other sensitive data exposed due to malware hiding inside the Windows computer system:
PORNOGRAPHIC VIRUS ALERT FROM MICROSOFT This computer has been LOCKED Do not close this window or restart your computer without calling support We have locked this computer for your security you have been browsing unsafe pornographic websites. Your computer has been infected. Contact the Microsoft helpline to reactive your computer. Failure to call will result in a notice being sent to your residence. Microsoft Security Tollfree: (888)732-1022
Microsoft Support Alert We Have Detected A Virus From A Pornographic Website It might corrupt your data and track your financial activities. Please report this activity to (888) 731-1022
However, we want to warn you that an alert from Microsoft is a fake warning that uses deception to extort money or information, so you should not fall for it. When dealing with various notifications and messages online, be aware that a legitimate company would never provide a contact number after “a scan.” For example, a legitimate message from Microsoft would only include an error code without tech support contact numbers.

The virus alert from Microsoft is a scam which uses social engineering to make users believe that their PCs are infected with viruses
Cybercriminals are using the Microsoft logo as a tool to improve the credibility of the alert from Microsoft scams and is only one part of the social engineering [2] attack. Additionally, web browser notifications can sometimes successfully mimic legitimate pop-ups, so don't get tricked by that.
“Pornographic virus alert from Microsoft” typically causes the pop-up message on the web browser. Sometimes it might lock the window and not let you leave it, so you might have to call up the Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) and shut down the process of Chrome, Firefox, or another web browser through there.
If you have been experiencing the scam frequently, even when you are browsing via safe websites, you need to carefully check your computer system for the potentially unwanted program. To remove the threat completely, check your recently installed applications and uninstall every suspicious app from the unknown developer. Additionally, you will have to clean your web browsers to get rid of browser helper objects (BHOs), add-ons, extensions, plugins, etc. A detailed guide is provided at the end of this post.
The false alert from Microsoft can be deleted via malware removal. The process is difficult, so it can also be performed automatically. If you are a less-experienced user, we suggest detecting potentially unwanted applications and similar content by using anti-malware tools. To get rid of all suspicious components, use SpyHunter 5 Combo Cleaner or Malwarebytes . Reimage Intego will restore your system to its previous state by fixing the damage and fixing corrupted system corrupted files.
The alert from Apple is yet another scam that is aimed at Mac users and is just a version of its Microsoft counterpart. Malicious actors often use popular brands and well-known names within the industry in order to make false claims look more legitimate.
However, just as with the original version, Pornographic virus alert from Apple is also aimed at making gullible people install malicious software, steal their personal information, or make them pay for fake tech support services. The culprit of redirects to sites that show warning from Apple pop-up messages is most certain adware – one of the most popular Apple device infections.
Here's what the compiled text one a random malicious site that displays the alert from Apple pop-up states:
Do not close this window and restart your computer Your computer's registration key is Blocked. Why we blocked your computer?
The mac's registration key is illegal. This mac is using pirated software. This mac is sending virus over the internet. This mac is hacked or used undefined location. We block this computer for your security. Contact apple helpline to reactivate your computer.
In the background of the malicious page that displays the alert from Apple, crooks also include smiling individuals with Apple logo t-shirts, a contact number, and even more notifications about a blocked computer and alleged misdoings of the Mac owner.
If looking closely, you should see that the Pornographic virus alert from Apple is incorporated within a web browser tab – be it Safari, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox. Additionally, Apple, just like Microsoft, does not inform users about threats, stolen information, malicious activity, or any other similar things for that matter.
Please ignore these warnings and close down the malicious webpage that displays it. Do not worry about your personal information and cyber infections – simply scan your machine with anti-malware software to ensure that it is adware-free.

This is a version of the original scam warning - it claims that macOS users have been infected with a virus and need to call the provided tech support number
It is very important that you get rid of the potentially unwanted program that is triggering redirects to scam sites on your web browser. In case you call the provided number, you might get tricked into subscribing to useless services; also, you may receive a surprisingly high phone bill due to the premium rate of the number you called.
Additionally, you can also become a victim of identity theft after letting hackers connect to your computer system remotely to “fix” the detected issues. Pornographic virus alert from Microsoft developers might install a bogus computer cleaning tool and convince you to purchase its full license as well, resulting in money loss.
Finally, there is also a high possibility that threat actors will try to use Pornographic threat alert from Microsoft scam to gather your personal details only to use it for illegitimate purposes later (targeted scam campaigns, fraud, etc.). Once contacted the given number, you might be urged to reveal some private data about yourself or your computer system. Additionally, they might install data-stealing malware on your system, resulting in your account credential compromise.
