AntiVermeans

AntiVermins, corrupt illegally distributed spyware remover, has got the new name (AntiVerminser) one month ago. The name was the only difference between the original application and its successor. Needless to say that this change has been introduced in order to avoid detection by legitimate spyware removers.

Today the situation is better. Most spyware removers detect and completely remove AntiVermins and AntiVerminser. People do need to perform manual removal anymore. But tomorrow things might change once again.

Guess what? A new variant of the same rogue started spreading. This time it’s AntiVermeans that is actually the same application with some minor, mostly cosmetic changes.

Now all three variants have the same look, use identical parasite definitions databases and consist of terribly similar components. Furthermore, AntiVerminser’s and AntiVermeans’ end user license agreements (EULA) are complete copies of the original’s EULA.

Beware of the new rogue!

We already provide AntiVermeans manual removal instructions. Updated Removal Guide is also available.
