What is Green Antivirus 2009?
Green Antivirus 2009 is a new rogue anti-spyware program, which makes an interesting attempt at capitalizing on the recent obsession with all things green.

Green Antivirus 2009 will also perform fake system scans and hijack the browser, thus creating the danger of additional infections.
