How to remove KvmSecure?
What is KvmSecure?
KvmSecure is a rogue anti-spyware program, which plays the "recommended by Microsoft" card to make extortion an easier activity. Like almost every other rogue lurking the net today, KvmSecure makes it’s way to the system by using trojans, such as Zlob or Vundo. These trojans are an important part of KvmSecure’s campaign of disinformation: they mislead the user into believing he is infected and therefore in need of a spyware remover.
Once inside and active, KvmSecure will flood the user with popups and fake system notifications, supposedly to "inform" him that he is infected. The message looks like this:
“Spyware Threat. Your computer is infected with Spyware: Adware.Win32.Agent.rf, Packed.Win32.NSAnti.r, W32/Netsky-P. Remove All Spyware”
This statement is false, but by misleading the user, KvmSecure creates a reason for him to buy it’s "licensed version", which is equally non-functional.
KvmSecure.com, the home of this parasite, suggests that KvmSecure is copying Microsoft’s design to gain credibility. The website is quite terrible: there are overlaping layers of text, the content is copied from somewhere else and there is no contact information available. KvmSecure uses "software-payments.com" as it’s payment system, but it is only 3 months old and generally doesn’t appear to be trustworthy. The domain KvmSecure.com is registered to PrivacyProtect.org, which is yet another rogue anti-spyware.
KvmSecure is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block KvmSecure.com using your HOSTS file.

KvmSecure 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 KvmSecure can help you to remove it after you download the trial version. As soon as the victim downloads KvmSecure trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, KvmSecure offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, KvmSecure 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 KvmSecure, 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 KvmSecure, which is another way for Rogue Anti-Spyware to spread itself.
Most of rogue Anti-Spyware, such as KvmSecure, is nearly impossible to remove manually.
I did not install KvmSecure, but it continually throws the fake Microsoft screen in Internet Explorer. How do I delete it from my computer so someone else doesn’t inadvertantly download it?
