Antivirus Security is dangerous malware, fake anti-spyware program. This application is just a new variant of rogue spyware removers called Internet Antivirus and Antivirus 2009.

The main goal of this scareware is to convince you that your computer is infected with malware and that you must purchase the program in order to clean your PC.

Antivirus Security is another corrupt security tool; it offers computer protection for certain price, but it never functions as anti-virus. Once installed, it will ostensibly scan the system and display a list of fake infections that won't be removed unless your first purchase the program. What is more, AntivirusSecurity is capable of loading pop-ups and fabricated security alerts. It can block or crash other applications running on the compromised computer. Do not purchase Antivirus Security! Instead, please remove Antivirus Security from your computer upon detection. The removal guide below will help to remove this parasite for free.
