Windows Security System 2010
Windows Security System 2010 is a rogue anti-spyware application that propagates with the help of Trojans. Once the trial version of Windows Security System 2010 is inside your system it will generate fake pop-up alerts and run scanners that will detect non-existent malware on the compromised PC. Do not believe the security notifications displayed by Windows Security System 2010; they are just part of a scam to scare users into paying for its "full" version which will purportedly remove all the "detected" malware. Windows Security System 2010 is a useless program that should be removed immediately after detection.
