Win 7 Antimalware 2011

Posted: November 15, 2010

ScreenshotWin 7 Antimalware 2011 is a rogue anti-spyware application that uses Trojans or browser security holes to install itself into unsuspecting users' computers. Trojans associated with rogue anti-spyware programs come bundled in video codecs usually found in porn websites. Once the user downloads the trojan-infested video codec, the trojan installs malicious files used to perform illicit activities such as displaying popups with messages that state the computer is at risk of spyware and to download the recommended program. In most cases, the recommended program is a rogue anti-spyware program like Win 7 Antimalware 2011. Win 7 Antimalware 2011 uses the fake security notifications to alert users of imaginary spyware it has detected and to, ultimately, entice users to purchase the full version.

    It is always best and sfesat to remove the malicious program with an anti-virus program. Sometime these malware (this sounds like a scareware). These programs scare you into providing it with more Information with nonexistent threats of more serious viruses. But left untreated this program can yield serious programs. So if you are unable to remove it with the anitvirus program (If you don't currently have one, this Program may prevent from downloading a new from the internet), I urge restoring your computer to a time before contracting the virus such as a couple of days ago. This usually works and does not ruin your data. Excellent Luck!
