Remove WinAnonymous. Removal instructions

Also known as: Win Anonymous

Severity scale:

(80 / 100)

WinAnonymous is a rogue anti-spyware program (a clone of PCPrivacyTool). It downloads and installs itself automatically by exploiting browser security holes. When active, it automatically starts a scan, which produces a falsified and exaggerated report containing many errors on the system. These errors can supposedly only be removed with the full version of the program, which is a fake.

WinAnonymous is a scam and should not be trusted: do NOT download or buy it and block winanonymous.com using your HOSTS file.

Related files: UGDCcw.exe, mc.exe, GDC.exe
