How to remove PC Security 2009?
What is PC Security 2009?
PC Security 2009 is a rogue anti-spyware program – one of those fake spyware removers we all know and love. This parasite uses trojans, such as the already-infamous Vundo, as well as malicious websites and, possibly, worms, to enter the system. It relies on misleading advertising to trick users into purchasing it’s “licensed version”, which is no more functional than the trial.
Once inside and active, PC Security 2009 will flood the user with popups and fake system notifications, supposedly to inform him of an infection or multiple infections present on the system. While this information may coincidentally be true, PC Security 2009 has neither the ability to detect nor remove threats and should therefore be ignored. Much like any other rogue, PC Security 2009 performs fake system scans, which produce greatly exaggerated results, oftentimes containing false positives. In addition, PC Security 2009 will significantly slow down the system.
PC Security 2009 is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block its homepage using your HOSTS file.
