Remove XP Virus Protection. Description and removal instructions
| Title: XP Virus Protection | Also known as: XP VirusProtection, XPVirusProtection | |
|
Type: Spyware |
Severity scale: (72 / 100) |
XP Virus Protection is another rogue anti-spyware application. It is very similar to Total Virus Protection. Probably, those two fake spyware removers were created by the same group of scammers. The main goal of this parasite remains unchanged. It uses scare tactics in order to steal money from naive users. XP Virus Protection can also be named Vista Virus Protection depending on the operating system.
XP VirusProtection can be installed automatically without user’s permission. All the hard work is done by trojans, mainly Zlob or similar. Once installed and active, XPVirusProtection floods the system with fake pop-up windows and security notices. Of course all those infections are feigned, that’s why users have to ignore them. However, scammers keep advertising XP Virus Protection and suggest to a buy full version of this worthless product, because trial version has several removal limitations.
Obviously, this is a fraud. It is highly recommended to remove this parasite as soon as possible, otherwise important private data can be at great risk.
