Do you know what Windows Saviour Firewall is?
With all the sophistication invested in rogue security tools these days, it can be easy to fall victim to fake security applications such as the deceptive Windows Saviour Firewall. This rogue antispyware application is not only the latest addition to the Fake Microsoft Security Essentials scam, but also emanates from the same despicable family of rogues as Windows Tweaking Utility and Windows Safeguard Utility.
Windows Saviour Firewall will enter the system under suspicious circumstances. The user will not even be aware of Windows Saviour Firewall’s presence until it is too late. The rogue makes use of various established forms of infiltration, most notably though infecting online flash ads and by using browser hijacking websites. In recent times it has also been reported that Windows Saviour Firewall tricks users into downloading it by using fake online malware scanners.
Once the Windows Saviour Firewall threat securely roots itself in the system it will edit registry entries to allow itself to run each time Windows is launched. It will then generate a fake system scan each time the user logs onto the system which will warn about dire infections on the PC. Windows Saviour Firewall will not offer to remove these infections until the user agrees to pay for a license for the fake software.
Windows Saviour Firewall retails online for $49.95 for a six month license, a ridiculous $59.95 for a 1 year license and a whopping $79.95 for a lifetime license. There is an optional $19.95 for lifetime product support.
Users infected with Windows Saviour Firewall have complained about other types of symptoms too, including being harassed by various fake security alerts and pop messages, as well as increased erratic system behavior. Other reported symptoms include the inability to establish an Internet connection and not being able to run any applications on the system.
In order to limit the damage this rogue will cause to your PC, erase Windows Saviour Firewall with a genuine and powerful security tool as soon as possible. Investing in a properly functioning security tool will also offer you adequate protection against similar future attacks.
In non techie terms:
Windows Saviour Firewall is a fake security tool only out to rip you off. Destroy Windows Saviour Firewall immediately to limit the damage this rogue will cause to your system.
