Antivirussupport.in is classified as a Possibly Unwanted Program (PUP) due to its real intentions. Antivirussupport.in displays fraudulent messages warning the computer user about threats that were found. Then, it provides a telephone number and prompts the computer user to call its 'technical support' to get help and remove the infections. By calling their number, a person will confirm the 'threat infections' and will ask for a payment to provide the necessary tools to remove the fake infections. This kind of misleading tactic is very common, but gullible computer users may fall prey of the scary results presented and end up paying for a not needed service. Even paying the asked amount, the affected computer user will not get rid of its annoying pop-ups. The only way to stop it is removing its add-on and related components.
