Win 7 Security
From Wiki-Security, the free encyclopedia of computer security
|
Win 7 Security is a ridiculous rogue anti-spyware application that should never be considered to be up to any good. Wiki-security.com malware researchers have reported that though Win 7 Security is, seemingly, a Microsoft Windows-related computer security application, this rogue anti-spyware program is actually a malicious computer program that can be most easily summed up as a nasty malware product. If you have discovered Win 7 Security on your computer system, the most important fact that needs to be acknowledged is that this rogue anti-spyware application is a dangerous and extremely harmful malware product that can offer nothing of use to you or your machine. Win 7 Security will actively pursue wrecking all types of harm to your PC system, and above all, more than anything else, this rogue security application is designed and solely meant to steal your money. For these general reasons, Win 7 Security needs to be removed from ALL compromised computers as soon as its malicious presence has been successfully identified.
Win 7 Security's Undeserved Pretense of Legitimacy
While wrongfully employing the Windows brand name and masquerading under the false pretense of being a legitimate computer security tool, the Win 7 Security application is NOT at all what Win 7 Security seems. In fact, analysis completed on this rogue security application has revealed that Win 7 Security is, in truth, nothing more than a threat that is much more than capable of seriously damaging infected computer systems.
Thus – though in name, appearance and its ability to emulate authentic computer security products' outer appearance and functionality – Win 7 Security is, in no way whatsoever, anything along the lines of a real computer security program; rather, Win 7 Security is a cyber scam that works by launching a scareware-type campaign on infected computer systems. In order to allow Win 7 Security to scam its victims into purchasing the full version of this phony security program, Win 7 Security actively works to frighten targeted users into wholeheartedly believing that their computer systems are severely compromised with a long list of non-existent computer security threats.
Win 7 Security Has Been Discovered to Be a Nasty Name-Changing Rogue Security Tool
Win 7 Security has been an addition to an already quite sizable family of rogue security products that specialize in the art of deception and are cleverly equipped with an additional built-in capability that allows this family of rogue security programs to better manipulate and dupe its intended targets. More succinctly, Win 7 Security possess the added capability of altering their individual applications' displayed names to allow what is, then, displayed to coincide with the specific Windows OS used on individual machines compromised by this rogue anti-spyware application. To this end, Win 7 Security can alter its name to appear as both Vista Security and XP Security on compromised computers that utilize the Windows Vista and Windows XP operating systems.
Clearly, Win 7 Security has been diagnosed by Wiki-security.com malware researchers as a very dangerous rogue anti-spyware application that intentionally misuses the well-known and highly respected Windows brand name to provide its cyber scam with an undeserved air of legitimacy and credibility. Just this singular criminal act – one of the many that this rogue anti-spyware application is able to use to manifest its devious presence – is, in itself, more than enough – in terms of deceptive tactics and convincing techniques derived from skilled manipulation – to catch even the most vigilant computer user off guard.
