Antivirus XP

Antivirus XP or AntivirusXP, is a rogue anti-spyware program and clone of Antivirus 2008, Antivirus XP Protection and Antivirus XP 2009. Antivirus XP may be installed in the user's computer system by Trojan Zlob bundled in a fake video codec installer from an adult website. Once Antivirus XP is installed, the user may receive fake popups stating that the user's computer is infected with spyware. If the user clicks on any of these popups, he/she will be redirected to a malicous website to further purchase Antivirus XP's full version.

Antivirus XP may also emulate a computer system scan and display erroneous scan results to trick the user into believing his/her computer is in danger. To remove the imaginary threats generated by the fake system scan, the user is supposed to buy Antivirus XP's full program. Antivirus XP is not able to detect nor remove any spyware infections found in the user's computer, Antivirus XP is the threat itself.
