Malware Protection is a rogue anti-spyware program that uses fake scan results and false security alerts to make you think you are infected. It is promoted through the use of fake online malware scanners, trojans and infected websites. It may come bundled with other malware as well or use software vulnerabilities to enter the system. When the program performs a scan it detects false infections and won’t allow you to remove them until you purchase it. Do not purchase it. Otherwise, you will lose your money. Malware Protection is a scam, it won’t remove any infections and it won’t protect your computer against malware. If you are infected with this rogue program, please use the removal guide below to remove Malware Protection and related malware manually for free or with an automatic removal tool.
While Malware Protection is running you will also see numerous fake security alerts and warnings on your computer. These warnings will state that your computer is infected or that someone is trying to hack your computer.
