InfoDoctor

Posted: October 22, 2010

InfoDoctor is a rogue anti-virus program designed to pilfer money from unwary computer users. It reports false system security threats and displays fake warnings to scare you into thinking that your computer is infected with malware. The only infection on your PC is most likely Info Doctor. This rogue uses a trojan virus to infiltrate the PC and then pretends to be legitimate anti-malware software. InfoDoctor will use a fake online scanner and misleading video/warez websites as part of its scare tactics. Info Doctor is also distributed on Facebook and other social sites so be very careful when opening unknown links. After being warned about the infection you will be urged to purchase a licensed version of InfoDoctor, which is in fact useless. Use a reliable anti-malware program to detect amd remove Info Doctor before it tries to scam you out of money.
