Do you know what PC Security Guardian is?
The creators of rogue antispyware never sleep and here comes another spawn in the long line of computer threats – PC Security Guardian. Previous threats from the same family include Internet Security Essentials, Smart Internet Protection 2011, Best Malware Protection and so on. These rogues are dangerous in a sense that they appear and behave very much like real antivirus programs and unsuspecting users can be easily tricked into believing that the product they are being offered is real.
However, there is nothing real about PC Security Guardian. Even the way it gets into your computer is shady enough. Creators of this rogue sometimes use the most popular search keywords in their site, so that the link to the webpage would appear at the top of the search results. For example, if there is some kind of event happening, a lot of people are searching for information about it, and the cyber criminals might embed the basic keywords about that event into their site, so that it would be picked up by the search engines. If that site appears at the top of the search list, it is more probable that the user will click that link and will land on the site. From there, it is only a matter of minutes before the system gets infected by PC Security Guardian.
When it gets installed in the targeted computer, the rogue runs a fake system scan and then sends tons of fake security alert messages to the user in hopes of making him panic. The messages sent say that your system has been compromised, and you are recommended to “Activate PC Security Guardian to get ultimate protection against Identity Theft, Viruses, Malware and other threats!”. Naturally, such claims are nothing but obvious lies, and PC Security Guardian only wants your credit card information, so that its creators could access your bank account and sweep it clean.
The full version of the program would never be able to protect you against various threats. PC Security Guardian is a threat itself, and so you need to remove it as soon as possible. It is easier to remove the rogue when it has been activated. So, to make the deletion of PC Security Guardian easier, use this code to “activate” it:
U2FD-S2LA-H4KA-UEPB
Once you have entered the activation key, you can get yourself a good antispyware program, which will locate and erase PC Security Guardian for you. Don’t hesitate any longer, because this rogue can cause extensive damage to your computer.
In non techie terms:
PC Security Guardian is a fake antispyware program which looks and acts like a legitimate antivirus application. It has been created to lure easy money out of the gullible users, but it cannot and never will safeguard your computer. Protect yourself at once by deleting PC Security Guardian from your system.
