Antivirus Soft: A New Threat You Should Be Aware Of

One of the latest rogueware to hit the web is called Antivirus Soft. Don’t be fooled by its name: it is not at all an antivirus product. The program reaches people’s computers with the help of various Trojans that can be found when browsing over the Internet. This malware will be pushed as being a good product (an antivirus one) and that it will be beneficial for your PC. So once installed, this malware will perform a fake system scan of your computer and will report it as being deeply infected. Be aware: all those threats reported are either non existent, or were just created by the malware during the scan process. This site Virus Removal has lots of infos about virus removal.

Then Antivirus Soft will change your browser’s configuration. Using the web will be but a painful experience. When visiting a given website, your browser will redirect you to other web pages. The program will justify the blocking of the websites that you plan to visit by letting you know that they are dangerous for the security of your computer, which is false. More than that, the application will constantly display pop ups and ads, also a consequence of the changes it made at the browser’s level.

Besides hurting your computer the most it can, this rogue program will try to get your money. When the program convinces you that your PC is infected, it also recommends you to buy its full version in order to completely get rid of the threats. You will be directed to a website where you will complete the payment for a useless tool.

Even if you don’t buy it and rather ignore this thing: you have to delete this malware from your PC, mostly because it is affecting your system’s performance in a negative way. The best thing to do is to find a good automatic program that will remove this malware from your computer once for all. You can also manually delete the program, but this is not recommended unless you are very experienced with these sorts of things.
