AntiAID is a fake anti-spyware application from the same family as WiniBlueSoft. AntiAID was created with a slightly different graphical user interface than previous rogueware in its family. AntiAID generally spreads through infected video codecs or flash updates. Once AntiAID has managed to enter a system, it will conduct a fake system scan on a user’s system. The scan will display exaggerated results of virus infections, followed by frequent displays of annoying pop-ups and recommendations to purchase the full version of AntiAID. AntiAID and all its related notifications are not to be trusted.
