Data Protection description

Data Protection is a counterfeit application which pretends to be a legitimate security tool. It is also from the same rogue family as Digital Protection, Your Protection, User Protection, Dr. Guard and Paladin Antivirus. The trojan based software starts its activities as soon as it installs onto your computer. Malware has no ability to detect and terminate the parasite. It only gains that user lose their vigilance and would buy a registered version of Data Protection  application.

This is a fraud and dangerous for your computer. Behind an offer stands bad people who will use your money for malicious intentions. This application is not worth spending your money. As any malware this one will scan your computer automatically and will show fake results. You should ignore it. Do not fall for this blatant scam. Data Protection can also redirect  your web browser to deceptive web pages that advertises “full” version of the security tool. Do not buy it, but choose decent anti-spyware application and terminate Data Protection upon detection.

    thankyou a lot. i have unfortunately been given this virus, and given into the ‘warnings’ which they give, when you click a button such as ‘remove’ it actually downloads a virus to your computer! its very smart how they do it, so in a panic when a warning comes up, they will immediately think to go for the delete button! i have already suffered from icons being put on my desktop, which are not delightful to be truthful!!! im hoping that spyware doctor will detect the source & kill it. thanks again, nicole x

    The same happened to me. I tried to do system restore but data protection disabled it then I tried to scan it and delete it from there but the virus also stopped that program also. My parents saw those porn icons too and it took me a while to explain to them that I didn’t know why they weren’t there. Thanks for the help!
