How to remove Protection System?
What is Protection System?
Protection System is a rogue anti-spyware program – a fake spyware remover, which typically uses trojans, such as Zlob or Vundo, to enter the system. The trojan is disguised as a video codec and distributed in various websites (mostly porn). Protection System relies on misleading advertising to trick users into thinking they are infected and therefore in need of the “licensed version” of this fake program.
Once inside and active, Protection System floods 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 in some cases be correct, Protection System has neither the ability to detect nor remove any of these “threats”. Much like any other rogue, Protection System performs fake system scans, which produce greatly exaggerated results, oftentimes containing false positives. In addition to all these less-than-awesome features, Protection System will also significantly decrease system performance.
Protection System is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block its homepage using your HOSTS file.

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