Our app, Download Shuttle, has nothing whatsoever to do with this malware. We have no idea why the malware creator decided to open up Download Shuttle in the Mac App Store.

We can only speculate that it was done in order to disguise what the malware is really doing (installing adware such as Genieo).

Download Shuttle is a free app and makes up an insignificant part of our overall Mac app portfolio. FIPLAB is one of the longest standing app developers on the Mac App Store and our apps have been featured multiple times by Apple themselves.

Perhaps you shouldn't jump to conclusions?

Sorry about that, glad to hear that you guys are not involved.

From face value it does look very odd. I apologize in for assuming you guys were involved.
