This program is a sham.
It scans your computer, tells you that it’s infected by a TON of viruses and trojans (nearly 50, in my specific case – on a computer that’s all of 5hrs old, and has only been on the internet for less than one hour) and then requires that you pay for it to have it fix them… All just to remove a single (Av-scan-soft.net) incident of alleged malware (that this company is probably in cahoots with the maker of)!
Yet another company preying on the ignorance of the misinformed user.
Tomorrow, I will be on the phone with some of the other IT security personnel, and will be having a federal investigation posted into this company.

I’m on my laptop which is fine – I have Nod32 so I’m protected.
The problem is with my pc and I can’t delete anything because it’s infiltrated my entire browser….I can’t even delete my browsing history. Can’t go into tools to delete the program…..can’t do anything. I can’t download your removal tool because it won’t let me type anything in the browser. It has now let me into my Comcast acct. but won’t let me type in your website, google….or anything else….help!!!
Is there anyway to manually fix this problem without having to go to my browser????
