List of Rogue Antivirus sites August 4, 2009

personalantivirus3



Looks like they have more Fake Antivirus sites up and running so I thought I would pass them along:




  • basicsystemscanner.com ([intlink id="3607" type="post"]Personal Antivirus Scareware[/intlink])

  • checkmypcantivirus.com ([intlink id="3607" type="post"]Personal Antivirus Scareware[/intlink])

  • onlineproantivirusscanner.com ([intlink id="3607" type="post"]Personal Antivirus Scareware[/intlink])

  • online-pro-antivirus-scan.com ([intlink id="3607" type="post"]Personal Antivirus Scareware[/intlink])

  • secure-pro.cn (Fake Windows Security Messages)

  • bodyscanguide.com (Fake Windows Security Messages)

  • bestsecuredpcs.com (Fake Windows Security Messages)

  • somesecuritypc.com (Rogue Exploit Antivirus Scanner)

  • scanwebtech.com (Rogue Exploit Antivirus Scanner)

  • bisquva.cn (Rogue Antivirus)

  • pc-anti-spyware-20-10.com (Like [intlink id="3977" type="post"]Home Antivirus 2010[/intlink])

  • pcantispyware2010.com(Like [intlink id="3977" type="post"]Home Antivirus 2010[/intlink])

  • spywaredisplay.com (Rogue AntiSpyware)

  • spywaremonitoring.com (Rogue AntiSpyware)

  • spywareremovalhelp.net (Rogue AntiSpyware)

  • antispywarefile.com (Rogue AntiSpyware)


These sites try to get you to install software or get you to buy pay for some fake software.   If you keep getting popups from these guys then you have some kind Trojan acting like it is a real Antivirus or Antispyware.  I recommend getting rid of those annoying little warnings and redirects.   Some of these are actually Web Browser redirects, others try to scare you into downloading or buying their product.   You should never download or buy anything from a site you don't know anything about.

Some common tricks are Popups, warnings, Toolbar shield, and also a fake web page scanning screen.

Threat to System : Moderate



[rating:4/5]





Advice : Do a Complete system scan and make sure you don't have any more hidden malware.
