XP Guardian
XP Guardian is a fake anti-spyware program that is distributed through the use of Trojans or comes bundled with other malware. Once a Trojan virus is installed, it will impersonate an Automatic Windows Updates window and download the rogue program onto your computer. When the rogue program is active, it will imitate a system scan and report false system security threats. What is more, XPGuardian will constantly display fake security alerts and impersonate Windows Security Center to make the scam look more realistic. Finally it will ask you to pay for a full version of the program to remove the infections which don't even exist. Don't purchase it and remove XP Guardian virus from your computer upon detection. [Figure 1. XP Guardian graphical user interface] The worst thing about XP Guardian is that it actually protects itself quite well. It blocks legitimate security software and hijack web browsers. In some cases it blocks all programs, not only anti-virus or anti-spyware software. Furthermore, it will detect many of well known and reputable websites as harmful and display fake security alert stating that you may infect your PC if you open a particular website. And of course, it disables certain Windows functions such as Task Manager or Regedit. It's possible to remove it manually, but you have to re-enable those Windows functions at first. You may also download an automatic removal tool, but again have to fix some registry entries and terminate the main process of XPGuardian which is AV.exe to be able to run the removal tool. XP Guardian removal instructions: 1. Click Start->Run (or WinKey+R). Input: "command". Press Enter or click OK. 2. Type "notepad" as shown in the image below and press Enter. Notepad will open. 3.

Personal Security
Personal Security is a misleading anti-spyware application that displays fake security alerts/pop-ups and reports false system security threats or infections to scare you into thinking that your computer is infected with malicious software. PersonalSecurity is a clone of widely spread Cyber Security and Total Security malware. The rogue program simulates a system scan and asks to pay for a full version of Personal Security in order to remove non-exist infections. In fact, the reported security threats or infections are actually either non-existing/harmless files or legitimate software. This malware will likely block real security software to protect itself from being deleted. Most importantly, do not purchase this bogus application and uninstall Personal Security from your computer as soon as possible. [Figure 1. Personal Security graphical user interface] Personal Security must be manually installed. Its distribution channels include e-mail, malicious or hacked Web pages, peer-to-peer networks and etc. The scammers also use social engineering to distribute Personal Security infection. Please note that Personal Security disguises itself and usually comes as flash player update/video codec or other supposedly useful software. You shouldn't install anything from suspicious websites. Otherwise, you can infect your PC with Personal Security or other malware. To make this scam look more realistic, Personal Security impersonates Windows Security Center. It states that your computer is not protected and that you should activate PersonalSecurity to ensure full system protection. As you may know, the legitimate one does not promote particular anti-virus software. That's the main difference. The rogue application displays the same infections on every computer randomly.

You should uninstall Advanced Virus Protection from the system as soon as possible. Advanced Virus Protection is promoted through the use of Trojans, fake online anti-malware scanner and ads or it enters the system with the help of other malware. Usually, Trojan viruses display fake security alerts stating that your computer has many security issues. Fake online anti-malware scanners display similar notifications too.

The scan results are of course false. You may safely ignore them. The same applies to fake security warnings that will come from Windows task bar or Windows Security Center. The main problem with those fake security warnings is that they look like legitimate ones and it is very difficult to get rid of them. Fake security alerts will show up like every 45 seconds. What is more, AdvancedVirusProtection will also slow down your computer and block antivirus software. Likely, it will hijack Internet Explorer and Firefox too. Advanced Virus Protection is a scam designed to steal money from inexperienced computer users. Do not purchase this program.
