Antivirspace.com introduces another hijacking malware that goes side by side with Security Suite – a rogue antivirus program of high severity. Antivirspace.com turns into a big problem once the corresponding trojan virus infiltrates your computer. This little pest will do its very best to prevent you from using your machine normally. How do you like being banned from visiting sites, for example? We mean all sites. That’s precisely what Security Suite and the related malware can do to your system. The only available URL will be Antivirspace.com, and that is not a site to visit safely, we must remark. Even though Antivirspace.com is one of the many such hijackers acting in favor of Security Suite – still, it’s not a domain you should go to, especially if it jacks up your web browser badly. We assume that you found our article via a Search Engine when looking for the Antivirspace.com keyword. That’s probably because you ran into this parasite on your PC, isn’t it? Well, in that case you should be aware that you are not only dealing with a hijacker, you got way more threats on your computer as well.

Malware Analysis:

There is no justification for the shameful practices of Antivirlock.com as it is a real nasty hijacker that pushes a yet nastier malware tool. Antivirlock.com is in fact another one of the tens of Security Suite’s ‘official’ websites advertising this software as if it were the best anti-spyware out there. But no, that’s certainly not true – Security Suite is a fake computer cleaner that is deploying a really vast misinformation campaign throughout the worldwide cyber space. This mendacious program tends to be spread with the help of trojan horses that come as a part of unsafe files downloaded unknowingly by potential victims. It’s real hard to let Security Suite pass by your attention because it does a bunch of really messy stuff with the compromised computer. The rogue displays misleading alerts stating that your PC is at risk. If you click one of those, you will be automatically directed to Antivirlock.com/shop website where the entire spectrum of Security Suite solutions is available. But the key thing is – you will be recommended to buy the license for Security Suite on there. If you believe you can just reject that offer, you are slightly mistaken…

Malware Analysis:

Antivirmars.com is a site you don’t want to go to. What is more, it is known to hijack browsers on computers infected with Security Suite rogueware. In other words, you will be constantly witnessing browser divert activity taking you to Antivirmars.com. At first sight, this domain may look normal and hardly any different from web resources advertising security software. Antivirmars.com would be Ok but for one ‘little’ aspect. It pushes rogue anti-spyware, jacks up web browsers, contains malicious scripts and makes people buy the license for a malicious application. Security Suite scareware would be worthless if sites like Antivirmars.com didn’t assist it in attaining its bad objectives. The determinative symptom that testifies to Antivirmars.com hijacker’s presence on your computer is the repeated browser rerouting that takes place when you are trying to visit a web page. Also, Antivirmars.com will be hit if you happen to click an ad triggered by Security Suite. You should clearly understand that Antivirmars.com is not just some site that pops up on you and needs closing each time.

Wow, the mean malware guys are really far-sighted and future-oriented, AVDefender 2011 (aka AV Defender 2011) rogueware being the evidence of this. This phony antivirus program from AV Defender 2011 Inc. is a new method for retrieving money being applied by cyber criminals. This product is rotated through blackhat SEO and social engineering. Every case of AVDefender 2011 invasion is based on the use of trojans, i.e. small fragments of malcode that bear the determinative definitions of the associated rogue.

All of these modifications call forth serious havoc inside your Operating System. You will shortly start encountering the symptoms of AVDefender 2011 functioning.

Red Cross Antivirus…an interesting name for a rogue security program, isn’t it? You betcha. Those cyber scammers are getting shrewd and really cunning. All for one purpose – to swindle computer users by making them waste their savings. Red Cross Antivirus is a part of the currently active scareware distribution campaign that involves a number of other very similar scareware applications having almost the same GUIs and following identical propagation patterns. The oddest thing is Red Cross Antivirus usually gets downloaded by people manually while they believe it is a good application to use for computer protection. This unbelievable effect is attained by hackers in a tricky way. They distribute a trojan virus that triggers legit-looking alerts warning people about the supposed infections detected on their systems, allegedly on behalf of Microsoft. Then, victims are suggested to pick an anti-spyware solution out of the ‘recommended’ list. Red Cross Antivirus will be one of those programs. It’s too bad Red Cross Antivirus is a fake. It will only keep doing the messy job on the infected machine.

Peak Protection 2010 is not real antivirus software. That is probably the main thing you need to bear in mind when dealing with this unsafe application. Peak Protection 2010 is distributed in a very intricate way. There has been an ongoing campaign of trojan activity which consists in displaying falsified Microsoft Security Essentials Alert pop-ups on the infected computer systems. This ad looks quite legit and trusty so no wonder a growing number of people are falling for this scam. The alert tells users about some serious security issues found and then prompts them to get a reliable solution to resolve that issue. As a result, you will then be advised to install Peak Protection 2010 freeware which is stated to be a cutting-edge utility capable of doing tons of useful things in terms of PC security. At this point, we dare warn you that Peak Protection 2010 is not the kind of software it wants you to take it for. This is a typical rogue anti-spyware tool meant for sucking out some money from gullible users’ credit card accounts. By the way, Peak Protection 2010 will be gradually driving at the alleged fact that you badly need its full version. You see, when running on your computer it tends to generate loads of fabricated security alerts deceptive scan reports that try to scare you into believing you got numerous infections on your system.

Malware Analysis:

Antivirdial.com is web hoax that sugarcoats the bad intensions of its parental malware called Security Suite. Antivirdial.com is not just an online payment processor site; it also serves as a springboard for Security Suite’s scareware techniques. What we mean is – the site under consideration can be a fake warning web page (please see below). The only thing it takes Antivirdial.com to become such is a pre-defined URL tail. No matter which version of Antivirdial.com hijacker you run into (actually, you will probably ‘get to know’ both), it’s highly recommended that you take timely measures to get all the associated malware swept out of your computer. For that purpose, you should determine the source of infection that has taken over your browser. It could be that your PC has some additional threats on board which are temporarily latent but will be sure to let you know about their presence somewhat later. Antivirdial.com is not only unsafe to visit – it’s also quite a pest in terms of the financial fraud activities. It contains links to a billing processor that is a part of Security Suite propagation network.
