Severity scale:

(80 / 100)

Internet Antivirus is a new rogue anti-spyware program - a fake spyware remover, which uses trojans, such as the infamous Zlob or Vundo, to enter the system. This parasite relies on misleading advertising (popups, fake system notifications, falsified system scan reports) to convince the user that he is infected and therefore in need of Internet Antivirus' "licensed version", which is just as fake as the "trial".

There is no reliable information on Internet Antivirus available. There doesn't seem to be a company behind it, and there are no contact details. Internet Antivirus is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block its websites internet-antivirus.com and avmyscan.com using your HOSTS file.

Internet Antivirus properties:
• Changes browser settings
• Shows commercial adverts
• Connects itself to the internet
• Stays resident in background

Internet antivirus is awful. My daughter downloaded this thing and both Sophos and Symmantec did not mark the program as "unsafe" or a form of malware. These instructions were very useful, not to mention appreciated
