Proantivirusscanv3.com is a browser hijacker promoting the rogue anti-spyware application known as Personal Antivirus. Due to trojans infiltrating a computer system via security exploits and modifying the browser settings, web-surfing activities are continously redirected to the Proantivirusscanv3.com domain. Here the system is subject to a fake online scan, which results in either fictitious or greatly exaggerated infection results, all used in order to trick the user into purchasing the Personal Antivirus fake spyware remover software.
