Windows Interactive Security: the Interaction That Leaves Your Real Security Dead in the Water


Windows Interactive Security is one of many members of FakeVimes, a group of rogue anti-malware scanners that pretend to be Microsoft-affiliated products. Windows Interactive Security, like other recent versions of FakeVimes, pretends to offer protection against phishing attacks, malicious memory processes, rootkits, spyware and even convoluted assaults against Windows components like the Registry. These defenses are, unfortunately, fake, and SpywareRemove.com malware experts have even confirmed that Windows Interactive Security has capabilities that accomplish some of the very same attacks that Windows Interactive Security denotes in its alerts. Victims of a Windows Interactive Security infection should anticipate being exposed to both fraudulent system scans (that display erroneous infection data) and various kinds of pop-up alerts, including those that warn against specific PC threats or attacks like identity theft.

Although there’s no good to be had from paying attention to Windows Interactive Security’s fake security messages, there are genuine functions of Windows Interactive Security’s that are worth watching closely. SpywareRemove.com malware research team has noted the following attacks are typical for Windows Interactive Security’s family of scamware, although Windows Interactive Security will attempt to pin the blame on unrelated and non-present PC threats:
  • Browser redirects to malicious sites, including unusual search engines and sites that promote fake anti-malware products like Windows Interactive Security.
  • Lowered browser security settings that cause your PC to be in greater than usual danger of being attacked via online content.
  • Blocked anti-malware and security programs, including Windows-affiliated utilities like Task Manager.

Putting Windows Interactive Security’s Rotten Idea of Security Behind You


SpywareRemove.com malware researchers discourage spending money on Windows Interactive Security, since this opens up your financial information to abuse by associated criminals. However, registering Windows Interactive Security with a freely-circulated code may be helpful for easing Windows Interactive Security’s deletion.

Since Windows Interactive Security alters Windows components and settings, SpywareRemove.com malware experts also recommend that you reverse these changes and delete Windows Interactive Security with a dedicated anti-malware application. If Windows Interactive Security blocks your anti-malware scanner of choice, shutting Windows Interactive Security down via a removable media-based boot can help you regain access to any blocked programs.
