APcSecure description

APcSecure is another variant of DefendAPc, SysDefenders and approximately 30 other almost identical frauds. Since “A Pc Secure” is a clone of malware, you shouldn’t expect it to function as a security tool. It imitates actions of anti-virus programs such as system scan and infection alerts. None of those should be taken seriously, since APcSecure is not able to actually scan a computer or to remove infections. Some of the threats reported by APcSecure are actually harmless files created by the program itself.

As if annoying alerts and hijacked web browser weren’t enough trouble, APcSecure brings additional malware: a rootkit named TDL3. Run anti-spyware as soon as you notice APcSecure pop-ups on your computer.
