How to remove VirusIsolator?

What is VirusIsolator?

VirusIsolator is a new (as of April 2008) rogue on the block that uses Trojans to infiltrate users’ systems by exploiting their browser security holes. As is usual with such parasites, this threat uses pop-ups and fake system notifications to warn you of a non-existent infection, expecting that you will be scared enough to spend your ahrd-earned money on their scam.

The thing is, VirusIsolator uses an illegitimate payment system, and their badly designed homepage with false testimonies and countless grammatical errors gives away the scammy nature of the program. What legitimate and well-funded internet company would have an ill-designed $50-dollar (which is precisely what VirusIsolator costs) worth website running their business?

DO NOT trust VirusIsolator and block it’s homepage (spywareisolator.com) using your HOSTS file. If you get infected by any chance, remove VirusIsolator immediately, as it is a real threat to your bank account and personal information.
