Because SpywareRemove.com malware experts have verified that members of System Progressive Protection's family engage in broad...

The IPA Virus is a ransomware Trojan that detects the victim's country by the IP address and displays a nationality-specific pop-up alert while the IPA Virus blocks your computer. Although the IPA Virus's pop-up claims to be a legal notice from the International Police Association, the real IPA is unaffiliated with all variants of the IPA Virus and doesn't make a habit of designing Trojans that lockdown random PCs. Besides its efforts to borrow the legitimacy of a real law enforcement organization, the IPA Virus is like any other ransomware Trojan and requests that you pay a fine...

Gaeilge Ransomware is a rare example of a ransomware Trojan that targets the nation of Ireland in its attacks. Like similar examples of ransomware Trojans from various branches of the Ukash Virus and Lockscreen families, Gaeilge Ransomware pretends to be an alert from a local government agency that has locked your PC due to illegal behavior. However, Gaeilge Ransomware is unrelated to law enforcement or any other branch of the government of Ireland and SpywareRemove.com malware experts have noted that it's unlikely that the Gaeilge Ransomware will unlock your computer even if you do...

FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus is a ransomware Trojan that displays fake FBI warnings along with webcam input to make it appear like the FBI are monitoring your computer due to illegal activities. This alarming state of affairs is the FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus's way of not-so-gently encouraging you to pay a MoneyPak ransom in exchange for a code that supposedly unlocks your computer. While the trappings of the FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus's pop-up alert look fairly realistic, SpywareRemove.com malware experts emphasize that FBI Green Dot Moneypak Virus isn't affiliated with the FBI...

Galileo System Cleaner is a close relative of Great Antispy 2012, a previously-confirmed example of rogue anti-spyware software. Like Great Antispy 2012 , Galileo System Cleaner displays pop-up alerts that use real threat names but fail to detect the presence or lack of such threats accurately, along with equally-worthless system scans that are preconfigured to return poor results every time. Even though Galileo System Cleaner would like these excuses to be an acceptable motive to purchase Galileo System Cleaner, SpywareRemove.com malware analysts advise differently – and recommend...

'Uw computer is vergendeld' Ransomware is a variant of the International Police Association (I.P.A.) Virus that's been localized in countries that speak the Dutch language, such as Belgium and the Netherlands (similar to ' Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware 's localization to Germany). An 'Uw computer is vergendeld' Ransomware infection is easily noticed, given that 'Uw computer is vergendeld' Ransomware's first act consists of displaying a fake police warning while barricading access to the rest of your operating system.

'Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware is a German-specific clone of the International Police Association (I.P.A.) Virus, a ransomware that displays inaccurate legal alerts while requesting money before 'Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware allows you to access your computer. However, although the transfer of funds that 'Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware recommends is very real, 'Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware isn't linked to any branch of government and should never be given money. Legal threats from 'Ihr Computer ist Gesperrt' Ransomware can be ignored safely, and...

Great Antispy 2012 is a rogue anti-spyware scanner that, in spite of its protests, is incapable of finding or deleting real spyware from your PC. Besides a misleading name that implies that Great Antispy 2012 is just the latest in a nonexistent ancestral line of 'Great Antispy' brand programs, Great Antispy 2012 makes itself seem useful by detecting imaginary infections, including high-level threats that are identified by technical names (such as Oscarbot.YQ, a browser hijacker that promotes various types of paid service websites). Given Great Antispy 2012's deficiencies in anti-spyware...

Den Svenska Polisen IT-Sakerhet Ransomware is a ransomware Trojan that displays fake police alerts that are localized for Sweden, simultaneously locking down your computer (by blocking other programs) and insisting that you pay a legal fine to remedy the situation. Even though Den Svenska Polisen IT-Sakerhet Ransomware's pop-up warning accuses your PC of being involved in pornography-related crimes, ESG malware researchers haven't found any signs that Den Svenska Polisen IT-Sakerhet Ransomware is linked to actual Swedish law enforcement, nor have they seen circumstances indicative of Den...

The Cash Edge Pop-up is a symptom of infection by a banking Trojan that attempts to steal personal information for online financial accounts. As expected, the Cash Edge Pop-up preferentially appears after you attempt to access the Cash Edge website, and requests that you enter confidential information as part of a recently-added security protocol. Victims who fall for this ruse will end up handing the information entered over to the Cash Edge Pop-up's corresponding Trojan, which will transmit this info to criminals that can use Cash Edge Pop-up to compromise your account and finances....

Specialist Crime Directorate Virus uses a pop-up message with threatening language that states that the PC users has committed several law violations, like visiting websites with child pornography. To make matters worst, the ransomware will lock the affected computer. In order to unlock the infected PC, victims of the...

Win 8 Security System is a member of the FakeRean-Braviax family of rogue anti-malware scanners, a collection of scamware-based Trojans that display fraudulent alerts and scans before requesting money to 'fix' your PC. Like all members of its family, Win 8 Security System can't actually protect your PC from real Trojans or other forms of harmful software, and SpywareRemove.com malware researchers suggest deleting Win 8 Security System with a legitimate alternative in anti-malware software. Because Win 8 Security System often is installed by associated Trojans and rootkits, you should...

Ransomware Information Security And Control Act 2012 is a ransomware threat that uses fake messages to extort money. The Ransomware Information Security And Control Act 2012 message usually attempts to relay a notion that the user has somehow performed illegal actions and must pay a fine.

Removal of Ransomware Information Security And Control Act 2012 can be performed with an updated antispyware application....

'Windows Genuine Advantage' Trojan Ransomware is a clone of the West Yorkshire Ransomware , ' Votre ordinateur est bloqué' Belgium Ransomware and related ransomware Trojans, and uses an updated hoax for German Windows users but, otherwise, the same basic attacks against your PC – including displaying a fake pop-up alert that blocks your ability to use other programs.

While 'Windows Genuine Advantage' ransomware's pop-up tries to pass itself off as a legitimate...
