GreatVirusScan.com

Greatvirusscan.com is another fake online spyware scanner that pretends to detect infections in order to scare visitors into purchasing the affiliated rogue anti-spyware called System Security 2009. Greatvirusscan.com is classified as a browser hijacker that uses the tactics of redirecting computer users to its domain without their approval.

Greatvirusscan.com has the following title on its webpage: "My Computer Online Scan," and it actually masquerades as "My Computer" window and its contents - too bad the disks configuration may not coincide with your actual arrangement. The actual "scanner" that runs on Greatvirusscan.com is nothing but a counterfeit, and the infections it "detects" are all fake, too. However, the main objective is to get you, the user, to believe these parasites are real so that you will end up purchasing System Security 2009 in order to combat these viruses. Not only do you waste your money on a completely useless product, but your PC begins to suffer immense slowdown and internet connection problems.
