Remove os-guard.com. Description and removal instructions

Title: os-guard.com	Also known as: os-guard.microsoft.com
Type: Malware	Severity scale: (23 / 100)

Os-guard.com is yet another website that promotes rogue anti-virus application called Antivirus System PRO. The website is full of misleading information. Spyware creators didn't even bother to change the screen shots of the program and left the old ones of Spyware Protect 2009. If your computer is already infected with this malware you will see Os-guard.microsoft.com instead of Os-guard.com. However, please note that domain microsoft.com is not related with distribution of this malware. What is more, Os-guard.microsoft.com URL doesn't even exist. You should avoid Os-guard.com and leave it immediately if you were deliberately redirected to this website. If you find that your computer is infected with Antivirus System PRO, please use the removal guide below to remove this infection from the system manually for free. Also note that there might be additional malware installed on your computer, that's why we strongly recommend you to scan your PC with a legitimate anti-spyware application too.
