Say goodbye to Antivirus 2009 and hello to Antivirus 360! I’ve been encountering Antivirus 360 a lot this week, both on home computers and small business PC’s. In the incident below I was called in to get rid of this Rogue from multiple computers that were running McAfee Virus Scan Enterprise 8.7i (adware, spyware and PUP’s were checked. See screenshot below).
Antivirus 360 is a fake security program designed to steal your identity (and a few dollars). Antivirus 360 can be removed with:
- Malwarebytes
- SuperAntiSpyware
- Kaspersky (KAV 2009)
- Norton Internet Security 2009
Make sure you perform a virus scan with the quarantine option turned on before you run combofix
