Andromeda AntiVirus is a fancy name for new fraudulent application. AndromedaAntiVirus is identical to other corrupt security tools: it’s not a security tool and it tries to lure people into purchasing a license of it.

AndromedaAntiVirus displays numerous fabricated security warnings and system alerts; it even simulates scanning a computer. These fake messages are for scaring people and pushing them into purchasing Andromeda AntiVirus tool. Don’t trust this program! Andromeda AntiVirus makes a computer almost useless because it loads plenty of pop-ups and regularly interrupts every activity by urging people to pay $50-$80 for deleting non-existent threats.
