Antivirus description
Antivirus is a smart and confusing name for a fraudulent security application. It looks like a virus remover besides the name is so simple it may look like the Anti-virus is a part of Windows operating system.
Antivirus is a clone of infamous Antivirus pro 2010 fraud. Both of the programs shouldn’t be trusted. Avoid taking Antivirus for a real deal. It loads computer scan results and infection warnings but all the messages are falsified. Anti-virus also imitates Windows Security Center to trick people into purchasing the program as it was something useful. The fake Antivirus hijacks web browser and redirects it to fraudulent security websites. It also displays fabricated alerts such as the following:
Internet Explorer has found an unregistered version of Antivirus. To protect your computer, please register your Antivirus.
Danger!
Internal conflict alert.
Antivirus detected internal software conflict. Some application tries to get access to system kernel (such behavior is typical for Spyware/Malware). It may cause a crash of your computer.
Antivirus is a Rogue Antispyware software
