Personal Protector is a vicious security application that pretends to be able to detect and remove computer parasites. Personal Protector is nothing more than a rogue anti-spyware program that comes from the same group of cyberthieves that created the fake security program called Personal Guard 2009.

Because Personal Protector cannot detect or remove threats from your system, it is recommended that you remove Personal Protector immediately with a spyware removal tool. Not only can Personal Protector populate your system with other unknown malware files, but it can load into memory making it difficult to manually remove and potentially cause damage to system files.
