Micro Antivirus 2009 Description

Micro Antivirus 2009 or MicroAntivirus2009, is a rogue anti-spyware application, clone of MS Antivirus 2008. Micro Antivirus 2009 may have installed in the user’s computer system by Trojan Zlob bundled in a fake video codec installation. Once infected, the user will receive a large amount of fake popup adverts and system notification messages informing the user about imaginary spyware threats found on his/her computer. Micro Antivirus 2009 will then offer Micro Antivirus 2009’s full version to remove the imaginary spyware infections. Micro Antivirus 2009 may also display a rogue icon on the user’s system tray stating that the user’s computer is infected with spyware.

Micro Antivirus 2009 may also launch its rogue system scanner and emulate a computer system scan. Micro Antivirus 2009 will then display a list of spyware infections and redirect the user to Scanner.Microantivirus-2009.com, MicroAntiVir2009.com, MicroAntiVir-2009.com or other malicious websites that distribute Micro Antivirus 2009’s full program as a real spyware removal application.

Micro Antivirus 2009 may seem a trustworthy program, however, it’s just a scam to download and install additional adware and spyware and steal the user’s money.

Micro Antivirus 2009 Method of Infection

The following Micro Antivirus 2009 actions occur:

The Internet user surfs the Web and visits a questionable website. A large amount of rogue anti-spyware programs like Micro Antivirus 2009 are mostly pushed through adult websites.
The Internet user downloads a free video codec, such as Video ActiveX Enhancement 2.07, which comes bundled with Micro Antivirus 2009. Freeware or shareware programs tend to come with other unwanted programs such as Micro Antivirus 2009. Do not install any free software without reading its EULA. By simply reading a program’s EULA, you can determine whether a program you are installing has spyware bundled with it.
The Internet user is infected with the rogue anti-spyware program Micro Antivirus 2009. Micro Antivirus 2009 runs a scan on the computer and gives a false spyware report claiming that the computer is infected with spyware. Once the scan is completed, a warning message appears that lists the spyware ‘found’ and the user has to either click on a link or a button to remove it. This deceptive tactic is an attempt to scare the Internet user into clicking on the link or button to purchase Micro Antivirus 2009.
The Internet user closes all the fake Windows error messages and warnings and is unaware that Micro Antivirus 2009 is still running its malicious tasks in the background. Micro Antivirus 2009 reloads itself on a timer so if the Internet user closes the program it will only take a few moments until it opens again. The average Internet user does not realize when spyware has infected his/her computer until it is too late and the spyware problem has already spread throughout the computer.
Internet user opens web browser and is redirected to a rogue website. Known rogue websites that promote rogue anti-spyware programs are iesecurepages.com, ahomepcsafety.com, securitypills.com, softhomepage.com, asafetyliner.com, puresafetyhere.com, safehomesite.com, instantsafepage.com, safetyonlinepage.com, among others. The Internet user is bombard with websites that pop up messages that tries to push a product on him/her. Ignore such messages! We recommend closing these windows by clicking on the X instead of the ‘OK’ button.

Micro Antivirus 2009 Symptoms

The following Micro Antivirus 2009 symptoms occur:

Micro Antivirus 2009 displays a fake system alert similar to a Windows notification message.
A red or green flashing icon appears in your system tray. If you click on the icon, a fake system alert pops up and directs you to a rogue website similar to safetyuptodate.com. In some cases, even when you don’t click on the icon the fake system alert may still pop up.

A website you may be redirected to is Micro Antivirus 2009.com or other rogue websites that promote Micro Antivirus 2009.
