How to remove Browsersafeon.com?

October 10th, 2009

What is Browsersafeon.com?

Browsersafeon.com is a just another way of promoting the rogue anti-spyware program Alpha Antivirus. You will encounter it only after your system has been infected by trojans, related to the rogue. The trojans enter the system insidiously, and alter the browser settings. The result of this is constant redirections to the URL browsersafeon.com/block.php. This link is a fake warning message, claiming that the website the user is browsing can infect his computer. The user then has a choice to either “Continue Unprotected” or “Get security software”. If he chooses the latter, he will be taken straight to the purchase page of Alpha Antivirus, which is a fake program.

Do NOT trust this website and remove Alpha Antivirus as soon as possible.
