Fake Anti-Virus Removal - Rogue Programs that look like Anti-Virus Products.

On the 'net there are thousands of people that design and distribute look-a-like Anti-Virus programs.

Rogue security softwares principally rely on social engineering in order to defeat the security functions built into modern operating systems and browsers to install themselves onto their victims' computers.  Most have a Trojan Horse (Virus) component which users are subsequently misled into installing.

The Trojan Horse virus can often be disguised as:

  • A browser plug-in or extension (such as toolbars)
  • An image, screen saver or archive file attached to an e-mail message
  • A multimedia codec required to play a certain video clip
  • Software shared on peer-to-peer networks
  • A free online malware scanning service


Some rogue security software also propagates onto users' computers as "drive-by" downloads which exploit security vulnerabilities in web browsers or e-mail clients to install themselves without any manual interaction.
As these programs can be quite advanced, it's not as easy as just 'removing' the program via Add and Remove programs. It takes someone with the technical know-how to eliminate all traces of the virus from your system.  Much like a cancer, you can remove parts of these malwares but they will simply regrow from the traces you left behind.  Gotapal can help you with these menaces and get your PC back up and running as clean and fast as it should be.  Gotapal deals with these rogue anti-virus products on a daily basis and can remove these without any difficulties or re-infection.
