Rogue – Advanced Cleaner (AdvancedCleaner)

Wow! My client from last night has had his PC for 3 days and he already has a rogue anti-privacy application installed. AdvancedCleaner is scareware.
AdvancedCleaner loads rather quickly at bootup and immediately starts displaying fake scan results that basically say…"Hey, I've been lookin at some porn!".
My client's wife was rather perturbed after seeing this application popup while she was sitting with her daughter. I explained to her that the application displays fake scan results (Adult Content Found) and would needed to be removed with real anti-malware software. MalwareBytes toasted AdvancedCleaner with ease.
