Security Scanner – False Alarm

February 15, 2012 Computer Safety Tip

With so many computer threats waiting for you just around the corner, you are bound to invest in a reliable computer security program. However, there are also programs that pretend to be antivirus applications so that they could rip you off, ruining your computer’s system in return. Security Scanner is one of these rogue antispyware applications, and if you happen to have caught this infection, consider removing Security Scanner this very instant. Otherwise you might suffer terrible consequences.

Backdoor:Win32/Hackdef.O, Backdoor.WinCE.Brador.a, Trojan.Win32.KillWin.bl – are just a few of the parasites that Security Scanner claims to detect in your computer during the full system “scan”. The scan is a fake, just like the whole program, but a lot of users fall for this trap, because Security Scanner makes the infected computer behave as if it really is infected with the said parasites. Then the user is scared and desperate to get his computer back to normal. It takes just a second to follow the rogue’s recommendations as especially as its messages say:

However, you cannot click anywhere Security Scanner wants you to click, because the whole thing is a scam. You will be directed to yoursoftwaresupp.com at the best, which is the rogue’s official website, and there you will be asked to fill out the rogue’s purchase form. Do not do that, because if you do you will open your bank account for the cyber criminals. Instead, “activate” the rogue (make it think you have purchased the license) using this activation key:

That way you will get enough time to remove Security Scanner from your computer with a computer safeguard program of choice. It is recommended to terminate Security Scanner automatically, because if you don’t really know how to do it manually, you might end up damaging your own system. Do not wait until it too late to do anything about it. Deal with Security Scanner today.
