MS Antivirus 2008 Image

MS Antivirus 2008 is a rogue anti-spyware program that comes from the same family as other rogue programs such as Windows Antivirus 2008, Antivirus 2008, System Antivirus 2008, Vista Antivirus 2008 and other clones. While MS Antivirus 2008 may look like it is a worth-while program for spyware removal, we have discovered that it is not. The user may wonder how MSAntivirus2008, MS Antivirus 2008, or MS Antivirus was installed onto his/her computer system without his/her actions. Usually this is done through a Trojan such as Zlob which is sometimes downloaded through a fake video codec, through spam emails or even through other malware or spyware. MS Antivirus 2008 is also known to display several popup alerts that tend to disrupt the user at times when using his/her computer.ScreenshotScreenshot
