Mirage Anti-Bot is a compact antivirus tool with a single, simple aim: to prevent you from accessing websites infected by the ZeuS Trojan.
The program's simplicity means it's relatively lightweight, so there's no annoying browser toolbar here to slow you down or cause other problems. Instead Mirage Anti-Bot just regularly downloads the abuse.ch ZeuS blocklist, then checks the sites you're accessing to make sure they're all safe, and blocks any that aren't.
The fact that the program is relying on a secondary list (even a good one) is of course a problem, because if you visit a site that hasn't made it to the abuse.ch blocklist yet then it won't be able to help you. So Mirage Anti-Bot is no substitute for a full antivirus tool with proper real-time browsing protection.
However, Mirage Anti-Bot's simplicity means you'll be able to run it alongside your existing tool without any conflicts. It barely used 3MB of RAM on our test PC. And while the program is a little limited right now, the author says he'll be adding support for blocking other malware, including SpyEye and Palevo, very soon.
