How to remove AntivirusBEST?
What is AntivirusBEST?
AntivirusBEST, ironically, is a scam – a rogue anti-spyware program that appeared in end of June,2009. This application was created the same group of people who have distributed Anti-Virus-1 and Anti-Virus Number 1 a bit earlier this year. It is pushed around with the help of trojan drive-by downloads or bundled with other shareware. Once your PC is infected with trojans belonging to makers of AntivirusBEST, you start seeing some popups or fake security center alerts claiming about endless computer vulnerabilities and various infections. They are only partly true. Your computer is in fact infected, but not with the trojans AntivirusBEST detects.
While active, AntivirusBEST will randomly display various pop-ups and fake security alerts.
Spyware activity alert!
Spyware.IEMonster activity detected. It is spyware that attempts to steal passwords from Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Outlook and other programs, including logins and passwords from online banking sessions, eBay, Paypal.
AntivirusBEST protection has detected Spyware program Win32.Monster.fx that is trying to attack your computer. Do you want to block the attack?
Whats is more, AntivirusBEST will modify Windows HOST file and constantly display various fake reviews. Some of the review websites added by this parasite:
review.2009softwarereviews.com, a1.review.zdnet.com, reviews.toptenreviews.com, reviews.download.com and others.
Thus AntivirusBEST is a parasite itself – a product that can not be believed and paid for. I recommend removing AntivirusBEST as soon as possible and recover control on your PC. Leaving PC infected might lead to data corruption or sensitive information loss.
You should block these sites as well : www.your-security-center.com and best-protect.info. They are used to distribute this scamware

AntivirusBEST is classified as Rogue Anti-Spyware. After infecting a user’s system, it proceeds to scare its victim into buying the “product” by displaying fake security messages, stating that your computer is infected with spyware and only AntivirusBEST can help you to remove it after you download the trial version. As soon as the victim downloads AntivirusBEST trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, AntivirusBEST offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, AntivirusBEST does not only fix the errors, but it also takes the user’s money and may even install additional spyware into the victim’s computer.
Some Rogue Anti-Spyware, such as AntivirusBEST, may offer users to buy it after the victim clicks on a banner or a pop-up while surfing the internet. Usually, a Trojan is installed to a victim’s computer after clicking on the advertisement. It then proceeds to download or even install AntivirusBEST, which is another way for Rogue Anti-Spyware to spread itself.
Most of rogue Anti-Spyware, such as AntivirusBEST, is nearly impossible to remove manually.
