WinSecureAV is a fake spyware removal tool. The program infects your computer by exploiting various vulnerabilities of the software installed on your machine. It will then embed itself in the system by copying its files to system folders and adding several keys to the registry, thus ensuring that it will be launched every time you turn on your computer. Once the installation is complete, WinSecureAV will begin its routine activities. They include generating false security alerts, displaying popup advertisements and causing overall system instability. Manual removal of this application is very complicated, since the program is able to regenerate its files as they are being deleted.

WinPCDoctor is a fake system optimization tool. The program is usually installed on your computer by some other software or by exploiting security vulnerabilities in your browser. It will then flood you with endless popup advertisements and warning messages telling you that the system isn’t performing at its full capacity. The sole purpose of this program is to persuade you into buying its full version, which is supposed to optimize your system’s performance and remove various bugs and errors. Once you purchase WinPCDoctor, it will not perform as expected and will not remove all the infection. The program is known to replicate its files upon deletion, this makes it very difficult to remove it on your own.
