A new threat that comes disguised as a genuine antivirus program has become
increasingly prevalent . Offering to scan and remove malware from your
PC, this rogue will actually install a Trojan on your unsuspecting system. The process is usually initiated when you click a link for what you believe is valid security software or its vendor's site.
Such adverts are not only a nuisance when browsing online -- fake ads appear on reputable sites that make use of third-party advertising -- but they are designed to rip off consumers by tempting them to pay for a worthless program.
Worse still, these rogue applications infect your PC with a problem they claim can only be 'fixed' by purchasing extra software.If you have fallen victim to this virus hoax, stop by the Help Desk immediately to reserve time for virus removal from your system.
