Win 7 Internet Security 2011
Win 7 Internet Security 2011 Description
Win 7 Internet Security 2011 is a rogue antispyware program that’s copied from similar types of scamware derived from the FakeRean group of scamware. Typical attacks from Win 7 Internet Security 2011 and other FakeRean-based PC threats include not just fake infection alerts, but also fake system scans, the littering of junk files around your hard drive and even a fraudulent Security Center that links to Win 7 Internet Security 2011′s website.

Win 7 Internet Security 2011: a PC Shepherd That Constantly Cries Wolf
Win 7 Internet Security 2011 has a polished and user-friendly interface that tries to appeal to the average Windows-user, but scrapping off this finish will instantly reveal Win 7 Internet Security 2011′s true intentions, which are the very opposite of security for your PC. Common behavior for Win 7 Internet Security 2011 and its fellow FakeRean clones includes, but isn’t restricted to:
- Creating harmless trash files, especially in your Windows folders, and then labeling them as viruses, Trojans or other types of high-level PC threats.
- Loading a fake Security Center applet that launches the Win 7 Internet Security 2011 website when you try to access its features.
- Launching itself without your consent whenever Windows starts or whenever you launch another executable (.exe) file. Win 7 Internet Security 2011 may even run in the form of a concealed background process without visible signs of its presence.
- Pretending to scan your PC and find spyware, Trojan, keyloggers and other PC threats that aren’t on your computer in the first place.
