Type: Malware
Severity scale:VirusGuardPlus severity is 70  (70 / 100)
 
VirusGuardPlus is a duplicate of another rogue application named VirtualPCGuard. Infact it is just a makeover of the former parasite skin: Couple changes to design made to mask its rogue past. VirusGuardPlus downloads using security blind-spot‘s of browser. When Virtual Guard Plus activates it starts automatic online scan, which always show falsified reports. And these errors can only be deleted with „full“version of VirusGuard Plus, which is not existant at the moment. Messages like Virus Guard Plus popups and scan results should be ignored as paying for this program might result to credit card information falling to wrong hands.

You can do some serious harm by downloading this program. Additional trojans, rootkits and other unwanted applications can easily access a PC infected with VirusGuardPlus. Thus we strongly recomend uninstaling this program using our manual instructions or reputable anti-spyware solution. Also, we recomend avoiding websites promoting VirusGuardPlus.
