Windows Guard Pro is a misleading security application that uses false scan results, fake security alerts and notifications about serious system security threats to make you think your computer is infected with spyware, adware, Trojans and other malware. The rogue program was released by the same group of malware creators who have developed Windows System Suite, Windows Additional Guard and Windows Protection Suite.

It will impersonate Windows Security Center and state that anti-virus software is disabled and that you must purchase WindowsGuard Pro to ensure full system protection. The misleading application displays known computer security threats to make it look more reliable and professional just in case you would search for a certain threat description on the Internet. For example: Trojan-Spy.HTML.Citifraud.a, Trojan-Spy.Win32.WMPatch, SpamTool.Win32.Delf.h, BAT.Looper and many others.

Furthermore, Windows Guard Pro will hijack the Internet Explorer and redirect you to totally different websites full of advertisements and malicious content. The rogue application will modify Windows Hosts file. Likely, your computer will slow down dramatically as well. As you can see, this program is a scam. Do not purchase it.
