3 unusual facts about Christopher Boyd


Christopher Boyd

Boyd was Director of Malware Research for security company FaceTime, before becoming a Senior Threat Researcher at Sunbelt Software (later known as GFI Software).

An article by John C. Dvorak of PC Magazine alleged Boyd was part of some "Grand Microsoft Conspiracy" to bad-mouth BitTorrent to the benefit of their planned P2P tool, Avalanche.

This technique is used heavily today by the groups behind the spyware CoolWebSearch (CWS).
