Title: PCAntivirusPro
Also known as: PC Antivirus Pro
Type: Malware
Severity scale:PCAntivirusPro severity is 81  (81 / 100)
 
PCAntivirusPro is a rogue anti-spyware program - a fake spyware remover, which pretends to be a legitimate program. PCAntivirusPro usually infects the PC by using trojans, such as Zlob, disguised as video codecs by exploiting browser security holes. PCAntivirusPro uses scare tactics, most notably popups and fake system notifications to convince the user that his system is infected, when in fact it isn't. This is done to create a pretext to buy the "licensed version" of the parasite.

PCAntivirusPro's website suggests that the parasite is a clone of many others, since it's made using the same template as at least 10 others. PCAntivirusPro is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block PCAntivirusPro.com using your HOSTS file.
