DiskHelper
DiskHelper aka Disk Helper is a rogue PC optimization application. DiskHelper is operates in a similar to other rogue optimizers including HDD Fix and Disk Optimizer. Once DiskHelper is inside your system it will run a scan which is set to always detect several computer errors. Users that encounter these fake error reports and alerts will be prompted to purchase the full version of DiskHelper to repair/fix the detected errors.
DiskHelper will also hijack a victim's browser causing redirects to malicious websites and blocking access to other security websites. To ensure that it executes each time the system is started up, DiskHelper will also create a start-up registry entry. Do not be alarmed by the fabricated alerts and scan reports generated by DiskHelper, just ignore them and use a reliable security tool to remove the rogue from your PC immediately.
