WinFixer Description
WinFixer is a deceitful application that reports exaggerated scan results, claiming that a PC is infected with numerous malware. After displaying a number of security warnings and irritating pop-ups, WinFixer will convince a user to purchase its “full version” in order to remove all the purportedly detected malware. WinFixer cannot be trusted as it is not able to detect or remove any real malware.
Type: Spyware
