Remove AntiMalwareShield. Description and removal instructions

Title: AntiMalwareShield	Also known as: AntiMalware Shield, Anti Malware Shield
Type: Malware	Severity scale: (83 / 100)

AntiMalwareShield is a corrupt anti-spyware program that infects systems via trojans and/or misleading advertising, and uses scare tactics in order to scare the user into purchasing its "licensed" version for approx. $50.

Once inside and active, AntiMalwareShield starts to display multiple pop-ups that warn the user about an impending infection, while in truth these are the parasite's download links. AntiMalwareShield then runs a fake scan that shows numerous non-existent threats and requires the user to purchase the program in order to get rid of the imaginary threats.

DO NOT download or buy AntiMalwareShield: it is just another scam roaming the internet. If you get infected, remove AntiMalwareShield ASAP.
