How to Remove Antivirus 2009 - Remove Antivirus 2009 Automatically
Antivirus 2009 is the successor of the older Antivirus 2008 and is also a clone of System Antivirus 2008, Ultimate Antivirus 2008, Vista Antivirus 2008, XP Antivirus 2008 etc.
It is basically a rogue anti-virus program that claims to be a real antivirus and also looks like a real one.
It is propagated on the internet using trojan viruses such as Zlob or Vundo.
Antivirus 2009 is usually carried inside freeware programs or freeware movies that many people download from the Internet.
Visiting also non trusted websites (such as adult porn forums, warez download sites, peer to peer sites etc) is another major reason for getting infected with Antivirus 2009.
This rogue antivirus program is categorized as "scareware" because it scares the user by generating false and fake alarm messages which claim that your computer is supposedly infected with several viruses and trojan scripts.
The program performs also a fake scan of your system and presents a fake report to the user.
The report claims that Antivirus 2009 found numerous "threats" on the system and prompts the user to purchase the full version of the program in order to clean the infections.
If you purchase the program, you just throw away your money because Antivirus 2009 is a virus by itself.
If you get infected from Antivirus 2009 you will notice that your PC becomes slower and that various pop-up messages start appearing on your screen.
These messages look like legitimate windows messages but they are not.
Their intention is to scare the user to purchase the rogue antivirus.
Your internet explorer browser might get also infected in order to redirect the user to malicious websites which promote the rogue Antivirus 2009.
You can remove Antivirus 2009 either manually or automatically.
Automatic removal is recommended since you will not have to touch any registry entries or other system resources and files.
Manual removal necessitates that the user is expert with computers and has good knowledge with windows operating system.
Deleting registry keys or system32 files can cause serious harm to your computer so you better know what you are doing.
As a conclusion, downloading pirated cracked software, freeware programs, or visiting shady websites will most probably put you in big trouble regarding your computer's security.
Cybercrime has been developed into a multimillion industry and the scammers involved in this are always pursuing to find new and innovative ways to steal money from innocent people.
My recommendation is to have the proper weapons to defend your computer and your money.
I would suggest to have both a trusted antivirus plus a trusted antispyware tool (as the one I suggest on the links above) if you want to successfully stand against cybercrime attacks like all those rogue programs that infect our systems.
