Malware Asking to uninstall MBAM

Tom Kelchner at Sunbelt Systems reports on malicious software (the Protection System "rogue") that issues a phony alert trying to trick a Windows user into uninstalling MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware.
The phony message reads
"There is unauthorized antivirus software detected on your computer. It is recommended you to remove it, other it could conflict with Protection System. Press OK to remove MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware_is1".
Conflict indeed. This is the ultimate compliment for an anti-malware program.
