Microsoft Security Adviser claims that your computer is infected, even though it is actually clean. That's why this program is classified as a rogue and must be removed upon detection. Microsoft Security Adviser uses legitimate looking graphical user interface (GUI) and the name of Microsoft corporation, but it has nothing to do with this well known company.

Usually, Microsoft Security Adviser is promoted through the use of trojans, adware and other malware. These trojans display legitimate looking pop-up windows and security alerts that advertise this parasite. Microsoft SecurityAdviser, might also appear in the list of search results when you are searching for reliable security software.

Once installed, Microsoft Security Adviser will ostensibly scan your computer and display a list of infections, that can't be removed unless you purchase the program.
