The Total Security Protection Center Messages are Caused by Malware

The fact is that the Total Security Protection Center pop-up windows are caused by Trojans and other kinds of malware. Usually hackers try to distribute malware by claiming that your computer is, in fact, infected with nonexistent malware. Then, they try to promote their own malicious software as legitimate security applications. The kinds of programs that the Total Security Protection Center messages attempt to promote are known as rogue security programs. Rogue security programs are fake security programs that can seriously harm a computer, instead of protecting it. Rogue security programs like Total Security are usually distributed by malicious advertisements that appear while browsing the Internet. These advertisements will typically claim that your computer is unprotected, that they can make your computer run faster, or they will offer to run a free malware scan of your computer. Clicking on these advertisements will usually result in a malware infection, installed through exploits of Flash or JavaScript vulnerabilities. A Trojan may also cause your computer to display these kinds of advertisements, even when it is offline. The Total Security Protection Center malware threat is a typical example of this kind of invader. It is important to avoid clicking on any of these pop-up windows to avoid the risk of installing even more malware onto your computer.
