Remove Hdrivesweeper. Removal instructions

Also known as: Hdrive sweeper, H drive sweeper

Severity scale:

(79 / 100)

Hdrivesweeper is a fake anti-spyware product. Even a typical user should be able to recognize this fraud. Hdrive sweeper performs fake system scan in which processes more than 33 thousand objects in 11 seconds and founds 159 infections. So there's no doubt that it can not be executed in such a small interval of time.

Hdrivesweeper is probably a clone of XpyBurner, because it has many similarities with last-mentioned rogue. H drive sweeper is installed onto the computer via Trojans when user visits misleading websites or downloads fake video codec. After infection, Hdrivesweeper scans the system and reports fake results related with security problems and privacy issues. If user wants to remove those infections, he has to buy a full version of this rogue, because trial version has some removal limitations. Obviously, there is no such a thing like full version. And what is more it won't remove any infections. So, as you might have already understood Hdrivesweeper should be removed without any hesitation.
