AV Antivirus Suite is a rogue anti-spyware program designed to pilfer money from hapless computer users. AV Antivirus Suite uses scare tactics to urge users to purchase rogue software. AV Antivirus Suite enters the system after a Trojan opens a backdoor on the compromised system. The browser will be redirected to a fake online scan which reports false infections on the system. The user will soon be bombarded by popup alerts urging the purchase of AV Antivirus Suite to remove the so-called threats. Do not fall for this trickery and have AV Antivirus Suite and the related Trojan removed immediately using reliable anti-spyware software.
