Taking care of your computer can be a tricky proposition. With the spread of spyware and malware on the Internet, it’s even more difficult. You maybe tempted to turn to various security programs for help, but be careful. Several of these programs are actually rogue anti-spyware programs that display fake security alerts. An example of this is the program calling itself Windows Support System.
This particular piece of malware enters your system via Trojan that usually come from fake online scanners. Its main mode of operation is to frighten the user into buying its full version, in hopes of clearing out what seems to be a massive infection on the user’s computer – an infection that is a complete fabrication of this program.
How Windows Support System does this is through the following: first, this piece of malware will pretend that it is scanning your system. Then it will start displaying security warning and alerts, all of which will be fake. There is no infection on your computer other than Windows Support System. It will also start blocking programs saying that they are infected. This malware will not only be a great inconvenience to you, it will also manage to fake a real malware infection. Then it will offer to remove this infection, if only you bought its full version.
Do not do this – it’s a scam! Your only problem is Windows Support System. To solve all your problems, you just need to follow the instructions below on how to remove it.

Symptoms Of Infection
- Your computer is acting slow. Windows Support System slows down your system significantly. This includes starting up, shutting down, playing games, and surfing the web.
- You are getting pestered with pop ups. Windows Support System infects your registry and uses it to launch annoying pop up ads out of nowhere.
- Searches are redirected or your homepage and desktop are settings are changed. This is a symptom of a very serious Windows Support System infection.
Dangers Of Infection
Viruses like Windows Support System will infect your registry and other important system files. If the infection is not treated it can cause a complete collapse of your system.
Some Windows Support System infections contain spyware and keyloggers which can be used to record sensitive data like passwords, credit card, bank account, and social security numbers. The longer you allow the infection to fester, the greater the chance of identity fraud.
