Home Personal Antivirus is a rogue anti-spyware application that is designed to trick computer users out of their money in forcing them to purchase a full version of Home Personal Antivirus. Home Personal Antivirus uses fake Windows Security Center popup alerts and bogus system scan results to make computer users think that they should purchase Home Personal Antivirus to remove the threats. Home Personal Antivirus comes from the family of the rogues XP Police Antivirus, Win PC Defender and Total Secure 2009.

Home Personal Antivirus is incapable of removing any type of computer threat. Use of Home Personal Antivirus will only result in endless popup notifications. Manual removal of Home Personal Antivirus can be difficult to perform due to its ability to populate the system registry with harmful entries that can load at startup of Windows.
