What is Security Antivirus?

Security Antivirus (also called as SecurityAntivirus) is rogue anti-spyware program which, just like its relative Virus Doctor, starts automatically when computer boot up. SecurityAntivirus usually uses Trojans’ or fake online anti-malware scanners’ help that install this parasite without any notification of a user. Further, this rogue enables all the legitimate security software found and then creates various malware files with random filenames  such as:

%UserProfile%\Recent\PE.exe
%UserProfile%\Recent\ANTIGEN.exe
%UserProfile%\Recent\std.exe
%UserProfile%\Recent\cid.dll
%UserProfile%\Recent\ddv.dll
%UserProfile%\Recent\runddlkey.dll
%UserProfile%\Recent\DBOLE.sys
%UserProfile%\Recent\PE.sys
%UserProfile%\Recent\tjd.sys
%UserProfile%\Recent\ddv.sys
%UserProfile%\Recent\energy.tmp
%UserProfile%\Recent\PE.tmp
%UserProfile%\Recent\FS.drv
%UserProfile%\Recent\CLSV.drv
%UserProfile%\Recent\ANTIGEN.drv
%UserProfile%\Recent\gid.drv
%UserProfile%\Recent\PE.drv
%UserProfile%\Recent\tjd.drv

In fact, all this is done with a reason to make unaware PC user think that his computer is full of infections. Security Antivirus additionally imitates scanning of the machine actions and reports that numerous cyber threats are detected. As you may guess, these files are the same ones created by Security Antivirus. Instead of eliminating, this rogue anti-spyware informs that only its so called “full” version is capable to do this command and offers for the user purchasing it. As these parasites are false, don’t agree making a purchase of Security Antivirus and delete it instead.

If left, this malware will also load tons of various security notifications which should also be ignored. Victims are usually completely bombarded by such alerts like these:

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

Most of rogue Anti-Spyware, such as Security Antivirus, is nearly impossible to remove manually.


How to tell if your PC has been infected by a Rogue Anti-Spyware such as Security Antivirus?

Numerous undesirable and annoying pop-ups: A typical Rogue Anti-Spyware parasite keeps track of your internet browsing habits, sending your browsing history data to remote servers, owned by third party companies that use this information to advertise their products via numerous pop-ups, toolbars, hijacked homepages and spam letters. All these undesirable advertising methods are used on the victims of Rogue Anti-Spyware.
Changed or new icons: Sometimes, Rogue Anti-Spyware installs unwanted software to a victim’s PC without user’s knowledge and consent. This may lead to slower PC performance and stability, as well as more unwanted programs you can't remove.
