W32.Pavsee.C
W32.Pavsee.C is a computer worm said to be related in the promotion and subsequent distribution of the rogue anti-spyware application known as Personal Antivirus. Once active on a computer, W32.Pavsee.C issues fake security alerts stating that the system is infected with a virus that contaminates .com and .exe files. These notifications are there to ensure that the user follows the prompts to purchase and download Personal Antivirus. It is best to avoid this avenue altogether, and so the removal of W32.Pavsee.C if extremely important.
