Severity scale:

(70 / 100)

Total Win 7 Security is a fake anti-spyware program that is promoted through the use of trojans and other malicious software. Most of the time, TotalWin7Security comes from fake online scanners, fake video websites or bundled with other malware. Once installed,Total Win 7 Security will imitate a system scan and display numerous infections that can't be removed unless you first purchase the program.

That wouldn't be so bad, but it actually asks you to pay for a full version of the program in order to remove infections that don't even exist. That is nothing more but a scam. Furthermore, Total Win 7 Security will display many fake security warnings to make you think that your computer is infected with computer worms, trojans, adware or that you are under attack by an Internet virus.

While running, Total Win 7 Security will also block antivirus and anti-spyware programs in order to protect itself. It will block security related websites and display fake warning in Internet Explorer claiming that nearly all websites that you going to visit are infected. If your computer is with this fake program, please use the removal instructions below to remove Total Win 7 Security from your computer either manually for free or with an automatic removal tool.
