Security Fighter is another in a long line of fake rogue antivirus applications. Like many of its predecessor’s it will install itself on your system through a variety of means such as browser hijacking and unleash a ton of malicious files through your system. Manual removal proves to be quite difficult as it hides itself well throughout your system.
Some strains of Security Fighter have been shown to contain keyloggers which can record sensitive information like your passwords. So be very careful and be sure to remove the rogue application as soon as possible.
