Posted: November 24, 2008

ProtectionLive-Scan.com is a rogue website that promotes the bogus anti-spyware program Antivirus 2009 Protection. The ProtectionLive-Scan.com site offers a free scan with Antivirus 2009 Protection. If you download the trial versions, the scan will falsely claim that your PC is infected and you will see fake security alert pop up ads. The purpose of the fake alerts is to trick you into purchasing the worthless anti-spyware program Antivirus 2009 Protection.

If you visit the ProtectionLive-Scan.com site you are probably infected with a malware infection and you need to remove it as soon as possible.
