Apcprotect aka APCprotect is a deceitful anti-spyware application created to swindle victims out of their money. Apcprotect is distributed by Trojans that enter users' systems via browser vulnerabilities or drive-by downloads. Apcprotect belongs to the same rogue family as TheDefend, IGuardPc and AntiTroy.
Once Apcprotect has penetrated a ststem, it displays numerous security alerts, pop-ups and false system scans in order to convince users that their computers are infected with dangerous malware. As a convenient remedy, Apcprotect recommends the user to purchase its "full version" in order to remove all the falsely detected malware. Do not waste your money on this useless application. Apcprotect should be immediately removed with a legitimate security tool.
