Do you know what Security Scanner is?
Security Scanner is a fraudulent computer security program that pretends it can save all your security-related problems while in fact it only wants your money. If Security Scanner is allowed to remain in your computer, it can cause an ultimate system crash. Therefore, you have to terminate Security Scanner as fast as you can, before this rogue tampered with your executables and your internet connection. That is right, the rogue is powerful enough to block your internet connection and it is of no surprise, because it is related to other notorious computer threat called Security Shield.
On the surface Security Scanner really looks like a computer security program, but other than that it is nothing but a rogue that uses all the usual rogue-related techniques to reach its goal. It will try to make you pay for the registration of the program, and you might forcefully redirected to yoursoftwaresupp.com, which is the website related to Security Scanner. If you delay the payment, Security Scanner will block your access to other websites, saying that they are infected and your system has to be protected. The rogue will actually say the same about your programs, blocking them and offering a lifetime computer security support if only you paid for the license:
"winword.exe" is infected with "Backdoor:Win32/Samsteal.A.dr".

It will make Security Scanner think that you have purchased the license and then you can go about the removal. You may do it manually, but if you are not sure about the whole procedure, better remove Security Scanner automatically with a trustworthy computer safeguard application that will save you time and nerves.
In non-techie terms:

Do not trust this malicious program, because it is a dangerous malware that needs to be dealt with immediately. Terminate Security Scanner with a powerful security tool and make sure that this is the last time you get infected by this rogue.
