Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde
"Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde" is a fake warning message displayed by rogue anti-spyware program XP-Guard. "Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde" is a message designed to make you believe you are infected with spyware. "Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde" will try to trick you and push you into purchasing XP-Guard. "Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde"'s entire message may read:
"WARNING! Spyware detected on your computer! Install an antivirus or spyware remover to clean your computer.
Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde
Warning! Win32/privacyremover.M64"
If you click on the message, you will most likely be redirected to XP-Guard's website or other rogue websites that promotes XP-Guard as a legitimate software. Blocking the "Warning! Win32/Adware.Virtumonde" popup is not a solution. You need to remove the Trojan that is generating this fake warning message.
