You also run the risk of damaging your computer since you're required to find and delete sensitive files in your system such as DLL files and registry keys. It is recommended you use a good spyware remover to remove Security Guard and other spyware, adware, trojans and viruses on your computer.
Run a Security Guard scan/check to successfully detect all Security Guard files with the SpyHunter Spyware Detection Tool. If you wish to remove Security Guard, you can either purchase the SpyHunter spyware removal tool to remove Security Guard or follow the Security Guard manual removal method provided in the "Remedies and Prevention" section.
Method of Infection

Security Guard installs on your computer through a trojan and may infect your system without your knowledge or consent.
