Updated on Monday, October 18th, 2010

When you’re surfing on the Internet nowadays, you need to be a bit wary. This is because of the many hidden dangers that can spell trouble for you and your computer. One of the foremost problems that you are probably going to encounter is malware. If you aren’t careful, these pieces of rogue software can sneak into your system and give you headaches until you manage to remove them.

A good example of the typical malware program nowadays is Antivirus IS. What it does is execute fake “virus” scans and send you fake “alerts” telling you that your computer is infected with a large amount of “viruses”. It then offers to clean all these “viruses” off of your PC, if you pay a simple fee of $90. You don’t need me to tell you that the price is exorbitant when you can easily check and see that legitimate antiviruses cost $50 at most.

However, that’s just the beginning – Antivirus IS will also stop other antivirus programs you have from working. This program will also hijack your browser and constantly send you messages that you’re browsing unsafely. It will also block you from any processes that will help you remove it from your system like the registry editor, task manager and system restore.

As you can see, this piece of scareware is definite troublemaker. To find out how to remove it from your system, you’ll have to read on.
