WinWebSecurity description
WinWebSecurity is not a security tool but it uses very convincing methods to trick people into purchasing this program. Win Web Security is a corrupt anti-spyware. If installed, it keeps urging to pay for using the application although neither free nor full versions of it are functional.
WinWebSecurity detects many nonexistent threats in order to scare people and make them interested in paying for computer protection. Parasites reported by Win Web Security are fabricated. It usually ‘detects’ Lsas.Blaster.Keylogger and displays the following message:
“Internet Explorer is injected with worm Lsas.Blaster.Keylogger”
Sometime WinWebSecurity may present itself as WinWebSecurity 2008. Both names represent the same fraudulent application; remove WinWeb Security 2008 with no hesitation.
