WinCleaner 2009 description

WinCleaner 2009 is another corrupt tool made by creators of ASC-AntiSpyware and Win Antivirus Vista/XP malwares. WinCleaner 2009 (a.k.a. WinCleaner2009 v.3.0.21) is typical rogue anti-spyware; however, it can do more damage than average infection of this kind.

Win Cleaner 2009 is designed to look like a security tool but it is unable to function as anti-spyware. WinCleaner2009 is incapable of scanning a computer or deleting infections. It reports nonexistent infections to scare people into purchasing paid version of the WinCleaner 2009. More importantly, WinCleaner 2009 reports legitimate programs and Windows system files as infections. Do not trust reports loaded by this fraudulent program.

WinCleaner 2009 is usually installed and promoted by trojans. It’s recommended to run a system scan to erase both the WinCleaner2009 and the trojans.
