Win 7 Antispyware 2013 is a fake anti-malware scanner that attempts to make its services look valuable through the creation of fake alerts for viruses, bootkits, worms and other PC threats. Because Win 7 Antispyware 2013 doesn't have any real security features on offer, there isn't any reason to buy its software, although Win 7 Antispyware 2013 will continue to interfere with your computer's operations until you remove Win 7 Antispyware 2013 with an appropriate anti-malware program. SpywareRemove.com malware researchers consider Win 7 Antispyware 2013 a significant security danger due to other attacks that have been linked to Win 7 Antispyware 2013's family FakeRean; these attacks can include attempts to disable security features, hijack your browser or block other programs.

Win 7 Antispyware 2013: One Part Bad Security....

Win 7 Antispyware 2013, like all FakeRean-based scamware, can be installed by many different Trojans as well as by the relatively direct method of a drive-by-download exploit that's loaded from a hostile web page. While the means by which Win 7 Antispyware 2013 climbs onto your PC may escape you, Win 7 Antispyware 2013's actual presence should be simple enough to detect, since Win 7 Antispyware 2013 displays highly-visible fraudulent alerts and system scans automatically. Win 7 Antispyware 2013's scans and pop-ups, despite their variety and usage of technical IDs for PC threats, lack any form of accurate security information and should never be considered trustworthy.

The ultimate goals of Win 7 Antispyware 2013's taskbar balloons, dialogue notifications, other pop-ups and scans are simple greed: Win 7 Antispyware 2013's criminal partners hope you will spend money on Win 7 Antispyware 2013's software to remove all the fake infections that Win 7 Antispyware 2013 has detected. While faking Win 7 Antispyware 2013's registration with any of several freely-distributed key codes can be done as an optional step on the way to removing Win 7 Antispyware 2013, SpywareRemove.com malware experts never recommend purchasing Win 7 Antispyware 2013, which is incapable of helping your computer in any form and certainly doesn't deserve your money.

The Second Half of Win 7 Antispyware 2013: One Part No Security

Win 7 Antispyware 2013, along with other members of the FakeRean family can also engage in direct hostilities against your PC. Some examples of the FakeRean family of rogue security programs include Antivirus 2008 Pro, Antivirus XP 2008, Windows Antivirus 2008, Vista Antivirus 2008, PC Clean Pro, Antivirus Pro 2009, Rogue.Vista Antivirus 2008, AntiSpy Safeguard, ThinkPoint, Spyware Protection 2010, Internet Antivirus 2011, Palladium Pro, XP Anti-Virus 2011, CleanThis, XP Security 2012, XP Home Security 2012 and AntiVirus PRO 2015. Attacks that SpywareRemove.com malware experts have rated as particularly urgent involvec:

  • Disabled Windows software: the Windows Firewall, Windows Defender and Windows Security Center.
  • Other programs that are blocked by Win 7 Antispyware 2013, which can display a fake alert that these programs are infected.
  • Websites that are blocked by Win 7 Antispyware 2013. Changes are made to redirect your browser to fake warning pages about malicious websites.

Win 7 Antispyware 2013 can be deleted by competent anti-malware software, as per usual for rogue security software. Given that Win 7 Antispyware 2013 has a good chance of blocking any anti-malware scans that you try to launch, SpywareRemove.com malware researchers also recommend using Safe Mode (or even booting from a USB flash drive), which will prevent Win 7 Antispyware 2013 from starting.
