PowerAntivirus2009 is a new rogue anti-spyware program - a fake spyware remover, which uses trojans, such as the notorious Zlob or Vundo, to enter the system. PowerAntivirus2009 uses popups and fake system notifications to trick the user into thinking he is infected, and thus creates a reson for him to purchase PowerAntivirus2009's "licensed version", which is a total scam.

There is absolutely no information on the company behind PowerAntivirus2009 to be found anywhere on the web - not even contact details. PowerAntivirus2009 is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block it's homepage using your HOSTS file.
