Generalscansite.com Removal Guide

Generalscansite.com Description

Generalscansite.com is a scam site that advertises the Live Enterprise Suite rogue software. Generalscansite.com is quite tricky since it is able to modify user's browsers and make the users visit its domain whether they want to or not. Sly Trojan horses are responsible for this browser redirect phenomenon. When a user enters Generalscansite.com, he/she will receive a lot of pop-ups that informs him/her about some type of malware infections detected. After that, the user will be presented with a fake online scan which is a counterfeit animation aimed at trusting computer users. The user will then be prompted to purchase Live Enterprise Suite in order to remove the "detected" malware. Do not fall for this scam.
