Title: itsecure.microsoft.com
Type: Browser Hijackers	Severity scale: (36 / 100)

Everyone trusts Microsoft, don't they? That's why, some of the rogue security programs take advantage of this. For example, the rogue anti-spyware application Antivirus System PRO or a trojan related to this infection modifies Windows HOST file and redirects the user of the infected computer to itsecure.microsoft.com. The rogue program adds the following line in the HOST file:

209.44.111.62 itsecure.microsoft.com

First of all, the IP address 209.44.111.62 is not related with Microsoft web presence. Furthermore, the address itsecure.microsoft.com doesn't even exist. You may see this web page only if your computer is infected with Antivirus System PRO. This web page is used to promote malicious software. If you are being constantly redirected to this fake website, tat means your computer is infected. Please use the removal guide below to remove Antivirus System PRO and any related malware for free.
