Remove XLG Security Center. Description and removal instructions

Title: XLG Security Center	Also known as: XLG SecurityCenter, XLGSecurityCenter
Type: Malware	Severity scale: (81 / 100)

XLG Security Center is a new rogue anti-spyware program and a clone of XLGuarder. This parasite is essentially a fake spyware remover, which uses trojans, such as Zlob or Vundo, to enter the system. Once active on the system, XLG Security Center will try to mislead the user, using popups, fake system notifications and falsified system scan reports, into thinking he is infected and therefore in need of an anti-spyware program.

There is no information available about the company behind XLG Security Center, and neither are there any contact details. XLG Security Center is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block it's homepage using your HOSTS file.
