Windows Threats Destroyer – a True Destroyer of Threats… to Itself

Windows Threats Destroyer’s rather ominous name may be memorable, but all of Windows Threats Destroyer’s features and even its appearance are all cheap copies of preexisting aspects of other brands of Rogue.VirusDoctor scamware. While Windows Threats Destroyer will make every attempt to fool you into believing that there’s a teeming swarm of PC threats assaulting your computer, Windows Threats Destroyer doesn’t have any real anti-virus or threat removal capabilities, and as such, should be ignored whenever its many fake alerts appear.

Launch itself without your permission when Windows starts (by inserting startup entries into the Windows Registry).
Remain open in the background as a memory process even if you attempt to close its visible window.
Attack your web browser to constrict your ability to load PC security sites or to force you to visit Windows Threats Destroyer’s homepage.
Block certain system tools, such as Task Manager, which Windows Threats Destroyer may replace with its own fake security functions.
Prevent you from running anti-malware scanners or other security applications that could remove Windows Threats Destroyer without trouble.

Taking Windows Threats Destroyer Out to the Trash

Since Windows Threats Destroyer is still newly-identified as of March 2012, you may want to update your anti-malware software before you attempt a scan. Although the scamware that Windows Threat Destroyer is based on are fairly old, Windows Threat Destroyer may include updates that make it more difficult to detect than its ancestors, and having an updated threat database will insure as much accuracy in threat detection as possible.
