It will give you a false scan saying you have all kinds of viri and Trojans on your computer. You cannot uninstall it once installed. The only way to get rid of it is by System Restore to an earlier date.

And no I'm not making this up.... It was installed it on it's own or by my mistake. It happened so fast I couldn't stop it. I've seen this before with another piece of antivirus software from another antivirus software maker. And they are usually foreign outfits to get you to buy very expensive computer protection you don't want.


I had not this problem because i am running my IEexplorer with ,,popup bloked'' all the time - the best way to prevent situation like these - and strange because seems the ImageShack is a serious site

Best regards!
P.S. How do you find the mod?
