Windows Armature Master

Windows Armature Master is a fake security application with a display that pretends to monitor security and media-related updates. However, Windows Armature Master offers inaccurate information instead of a real analysis of your PC and will even create messages about infections that aren't on your hard drive. These actions are created alongside attacks on your application usage, most notably browser hijacking, to make you purchase Windows Armature Master while you panic over a multitude of nonexistent PC threats. Buying Windows Armature Master exposes your credit card to criminal entities and is a solution that should be avoided at all costs; instead, you should strongly consider using a reputable anti-virus program to delete Windows Armature Master from your PC.

Windows Armature Master is Only a Master of Fake Threat Alerts

Dating from July 2011, Windows Armature Master is a copy of other rogue security applications that use the same external skin and internal code. This includes the abuse of a Windows logo and various security-monitoring grading systems that work on a percentile basis - all the easier to make it look as though your PC is failing in critical areas. Some rogue anti-spyware programs that are related to Windows Armature Master include, but aren't limited to examples like Windows Vulnerabilities Rescuer, Windows Accurate Protector, Windows Easy Supervisor, Privacy Center, Windows Debugging Agent, Windows Salvor Tool and Windows Debugging Center.

As noted earlier, Windows Armature Master doesn't try to inspect your PC, but instead, creates prefabricated scores and warnings that assume that your computer is infected and out of date. Even the purchasable version of Windows Armature Master is equally lacking in value as a security program and should never be bought.

Some of the common error messages you may see from Windows Armature Master include:

Ignoring these errors is the best thing that you can do until you've found a way to remove Windows Armature Master, since taking Windows Armature Master at its word will result in you performing destructive actions against innocent programs and files. Any symptoms that appear to be infection-related is actually caused by Windows Armature Master itself, or by the Fake Microsoft Security Essentials Alert Trojan that often installs Windows Armature Master and similar rogue applications.

Don't Get Suckered by Windows Armature Master's Browser-Snatching Sales Pitch

Pretending to find problems on your computer isn't enough to satisfy the Windows Armature Master scam, which will also involve more problematic types of attacks that make it look like other infections really are attacking your computer. Regardless of the exact attacks that you suffer, you should remove Windows Armature Master with the best anti-virus application that's at your disposal. Windows Armature Master uses a heavy arsenal of deadly weapons (other malware) to achieve its goal, and it has been known to do the following actions.

• Windows Armature Master can launch itself without your consent and may remain active after you've tried to close it. This simple Registry-based exploit allows Windows Armature Master to launch some of the other attacks that are listed below. Safe Mode or another safe form of booting Windows may let you stop Windows Armature Master from launching itself.
• Windows Armature Master will use Trojans to block a variety of programs and will make every effort to disable your real anti-virus software, as well as basic Windows tools like the Task Manager and Registry Editor. This attack is often doubled up with fake infection warnings to imply that Windows Armature Master is blocking the program to protect your computer.
• Although Windows Armature Master may allow your web browser to function, there aren't any guarantees that Windows Armature Master will not use a browser hijacker to hijack your web browser. Hijackers are used by many rogue security programs in the Windows Armature Master family, primarily for the purpose of redirecting you to Windows Armature Master's home website or another malicious website. Browser hijackers can also load fake 'dangerous website' warning screens that block you from visiting safe websites.
