Posted: December 4, 2009

Winwarepro.com or Winwarepro.microsoft.com is a malicious website which promotes the rogue anti-spyware program Antivirus System PRO. Antivirus System PRO uses deceiving methods to advertise and claims that the websites the user visits are all malicious. The warning page claims that security software is required to continue. The user will be redirected to the purchase page of Antivirus System PRO if they choose install security software. Internet users that have systems which have been infected with trojans will most likely come across Winwarepro.microsoft.com, as the trojans connect to the Antivirus System PRO scam, and alter the browser settings in such way that the Internet will constantly be redirected. Do not trust this website and remove Antivirus System PRO immediately.
