AV-Crew.net
AV-Crew.net is another online trap for the rogue anti-virus program Antivirus Soft. The AV-Crew.net browser hijacker uses malicious Trojans to modify the browser settings and corrupt the Hosts file. After this you will continuously be redirected to AV-Crew.net which produces a fake system scan page and false results. These fake warnings will try and convince you that your PC is infected with a multitude of malware. AV-Crew.net will then redirect you to a site that distributes a paid commercial version of Antivirus Soft. Remove the AV-Crew.net hijacker and all Antivirus Soft's threats with reliable anti-virus software.
