WinSpywareProtect

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

WinSpywareProtect is a fraudulent application and it is dangerous for a computer. The name of this program is absolute opposite of its nature. Win Spyware Protect is not related to MS Windows; it brings malware aboard instead of preventing computer infections. User can not even choose if he wants WinSpywareProtect to run on his computer. It is installed by trojans like Vundo and Zlob.

Do not use Win Spyware Protect as an antispyware! It can only load pop-ups disguised as system alerts, but it is not able to locate or delete infections. All the notifications displayed by WinSpywareProtect are falsified. Remove WinSpywareProtect without hesitation.

Netbooster Worm

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

Netbooster Worm (sometime identified as Worm.Win32.Netbooster) is detected by rogue security tools only. In other words, if some anti-spyware/anti-malware/anti-virus reports Netbooster Worm infection, the application itself is malicious. Corrupt security tools report fake threats in order to scare users and make them buy a license. Do not trust any software related to Worm.Win32.Netbooster. The program that “detects” Netbooster Worm is the one that puts it on a machine. Remove Netbooster Worm and use genuine anti spyware to remove corrupt applications.

AntiVirProtect

Monday, April 21st, 2008

AntiVirProtect might look like inoffensive application which loads pop-ups, but it is much more dangerous than that. AntiVir Protect is not even a genuine product; it is a clone of infamous rogue antispyware named SpyShredder. Both SpyShredder and Anti Vir Protect have no use as anti-spyware, because they are non-functional. AntiVirProtect loads commercial pop-ups that may lead users into purchasing full version of this program. If Anti Vir Protect hits your computer, remove it as soon as possible. Do not buy AntiVir Protect! It’s a fraud to gain money; this software never functions as a security tool.

Use AntiVirProtect removal right after this scam appears on your machine. AntiVir Protect is able to install malwares to compromised computer; delete it till not too late.

DoctorAdwarePro

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

DoctorAdwarePro is another corrupt security tool. It should be called Adware, because its main function is advertising rogue anti spyware. Do not buy Doctor Adware Pro or anything it promotes! It may launch fabricated security notifications and error reports in order to make an image of badly infected system. Some pop-ups loaded by DoctorAdware Pro may even be masked as Windows alerts; do not trust anything related to this software. Its only purpose is making people spend money on this non-functional security tool.
If Doctor Adware infects your computer, use DoctorAdwarePro removal or scan a machine with genuine anti spyware.

Evidence Eliminator

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

EvidenceEliminator is promoted as history cleaner. Many computer users may find history cleaner helpful, but Evidence Eliminator brings more problems than any ‘evidences’.

EvidenceEliminator comes bundled with trojans: Vundo, Zlob and other pesky parasites. They slow down a computer and display pop-ups, so people decide to buy a license of Evidence Eliminator for erasing the threats. Keep in mind that all those threats are installed by EvidenceEliminator itself. Do not trust this application. It is not capable of removing trojans or cleaning history. Remove EvidenceEliminator without any doubts.
