Dear all,
I discovered the fake security software called “Advanced System Protector” and “RegClean Pro”.
This is not computer virus, but this is the malware.
* What is Malware: It’s Malicious software, including computer virus.
- “RegClean Pro” tends to make you buy the fake software.
- “Advanced System Protector” tries to install the advertisement software (adware) .
“Advanced System Protector” forcibly installs “RegClean Pro” software without your acceptance.
If you installed the fake security software, you should remove the software.
And then, you should consider to improve the security countermeasure system in your PC.
(Reference: Recommendation of PC Security Check (Windows/Macintosh)
Approach
When you access a web site, the alert “Your PC may be infected with a computer virus! Please check your PC by clicking this tool!” may be displayed.
You may feel that the attention message of the fake security software is kindness. If you feel so , the software will be winner above your security system.
The checking is fake process, so the tool will suggest as follow: “As a result of checking the tool, your PC is infected the computer virus. Therefore, you need to remove it by installing this software. We can help you about this tool.”.
This is a psychological war!
