Antimalware Tool is a rogue anti-spyware application that displays fake security alerts and reports false system threats as a method to make you think you are infected with viruses. It’s from the same family as Internet Defender. The rogue pretends to scan your computer for various malicious software and reports numerous infections. It then prompts to pay for a full version of the program to remove the infections and to protect your computer. Actually, it just tries to scam you out of your money. It detects non-existent files as malware but does not allow you to remove them until you purchase the full version of the program. If you have paid for the this program already then I suggest you to contact your credit card company and dispute the charges.
