Be careful because Alpha Antivirus is not a real antivirus and will not remove any infection from your PC! It is a bogus application which just imitates to be the reputable software which “surprisingly” detects tons of them in the system of the PC. What is more, Alpha Antivirus will urgently push you to get its paid version for fixing all the problems detected and there is no other option presented by this scam.
Alpha Antivirus can break into the PC when misleading websites are visited. After entering such domain, this parasite is automatically downloaded to your machine without any sign. You will notice its fake system scans and annoying pop-ups displayed for the reason to make you purchase the “full” version of Alpha Antivirus. Please, act contrary and remove Alpha Antivirus from your PC without any doubt.

Monday, July 6th, 2009Personal Antivirus is yet another bogus anti-spyware program advertised as a reliable security application. First of all, this program is classified as a rogue program because it is promoted through the use of trojans and other malware. Various malicious web sites provide free anti-malware scanners, display false scan results and then suggest downloading Personal Antivirus in order to remove these infections. Don’t download and purchase this program, regardless of what it tells you. When running, this parasite will pretend to scan your computer and display various bogus infections that won’t be removed until you first purchase the program. This is a very common method, used by almost all rogue applications, especially security related ones. Then Personal Antivirus will flood your computer with fake security alerts stating that your computer is under attack or has many security issues. Don’t be fooled. The only real infection is Personal Antivirus itself. That’s why you have to remove Personal Antivirus form your computer upon detection, otherwise it may download additional malware which later can cause even more damage to the system.
