Icesword is an app developed by a Chinese guy and it has something to do with RootKit. Other than that... I have no idea why... :: weird ::

The domain is registered in Japan to an obviously fake name (Sakura Yamato). It probably forwards to Apple because whoever owns the domain thinks that the best way to get rid of rootkits is to stop running Windows.

Thanks detective. Jk, but to be honest I didn't consider that at my first impression... I guess is not a big deal.
