AntivirSolution
AntivirSolution (or AntivirSolutionPro) is a clone of the rogue antivirus program Antivirus Suite. AntivirSolution displays similar tactics to its rogue cousin. The hackers behind this cyber-scam use malware to redirect Internet users to a fake scan page which produces bogus results claiming the system is infected with all sorts of malware. The fake scanner also produces popup warnings which urge users to purchase AntivirSolutionPro to remove the so-called threats. Do not fall for this trickery, it is a blatant scam.
