User Protection Image
User Protection is a misleading anti-virus application that is a member of the FakeCog (CoreGuard) family and should not be trusted. On infiltrating a system, User Protection will create a start-up registry entry and disable legitimate security programs running on the system. Then User Protection will report fabricated computer threats and convince a user that his/her system is infected with spyware, worms, Trojans etc. The user will then be prompted to purchase the "full version" of User Protection in order to remove all the detected computer threats. Do not waste your money on User Protection it is a fake security application.
User Protection is from the same family as the rogue applications called PC Protection Center 2008, Protection System, CoreGuard Antivirus 2009, Paladin Antivirus, Dr.Guard, Your Protection, Digital Protection, Data Protection, Protection Center, Defense Center, AnVi, PC Protection Center, Virus.DOS.RogueAntiSpyware, Fraud.Defense Center, Malware Protection Center, Adware.PCProtectionCenter.
