How to remove AntiVirusPro?
What is AntiVirusPro?
AntiVirusPro is a fake anti-virus program, and a malicious one at that. This parasite uses trojans and various worms, to enter the system, at which point it employs the use of misleading advertising to trick users into purchasing the so-called “licensed version” of AntiVirusPro.
Once inside and active, AntiVirusPro begins its campaign of disinformation, which consists of popups and fake system notifications, as well as simulated system scans. All of these convey much the same message – the system is infected and AntiVirusPro is the best tool to get rid of the infection. Every one of these pieces of advertising links to the purchase page. In addition to being annoying and potentially expensive, AntiVirusPro will also significantly decrease system performance.
AntiVirusPro is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block it’s homepage using your HOSTS file.

As soon as the victim downloads AntiVirusPro trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, AntiVirusPro offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, AntiVirusPro 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 AntiVirusPro, 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 AntiVirusPro, which is another way for Rogue Anti-Spyware to spread itself.
Most of rogue Anti-Spyware, such as AntiVirusPro, is nearly impossible to remove manually.
