Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 Image

Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 is part of a widespread malware attack that involves Trojans and fake security applications in the notorious WinPC Defender family of rogue security software. This family of malware is also known as Braviax. Despite their appearance, Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 and its clones are not real anti-virus programs and are used to scam inexperienced computer users.

Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 and Its Clones Are Easy to Recognize by Their Naming Pattern

The many clones of Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 are not difficult to recognize because they use similar patterns for each fake security program's name (it is highly likely that these names are generated automatically). These fake security programs typically use a naming pattern composed of three parts:

  1. The targeted version of Windows (XP, Vista, Win 7, or Win 8). The Trojan responsible for installing Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 detects the infected computer's operating system and installs a variant of this fake security application that corresponds to it.
  2. A generic word somehow associated with computer security (antivirus, antimalware, antivirus pro, antimalware pro, home security, total security, security, internet security, etc.).
  3. The year of the release. These fake security applications have been released since 2009 and the latest batch, which includes Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013, were released in October of 2012 and used the year '2013' in their names.

This naming pattern is readily apparent in Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013, which targets computers using Windows 7, pretends to be a 'pro' anti-virus program, and claims to be a 2013 release despite being essentially the same fake security program that has attacked computers since 2009. Some clones of Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 are WinPC Defender, SystemDefender, IE Defender, IE Defender, XPdefender, WinDefender2008, PC Privacy Defender, Malware Defender 2009, Smart Defender Pro, Ultimate Defender, Advanced XP Defender, Security Defender Pro 2015.

Fake security programs like Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 use numerous error messages and deliberately caused problems on the victim's computer to persuade them that their machine is under attack. Posing as anti-virus programs, rogue security applications like Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013 will claim to be able to solve the very problem they create if the victim is willing to pay for an expensive upgrade. ESG security researchers strongly advise against paying for Win 7 Antivirus Pro 2013. Instead, remove this bogus security program completely from your computer by enlisting the help of a powerful anti-malware tool that is updated with the latest malware definitions.ScreenshotScreenshotScreenshotScreenshotScreenshotScreenshot
