Remove Fake Antivirus 2010 pro
Antivirus Pro 2010 is a new rogue from the same family as XP AntiSpyware 2009. This program is classified as a rogue because it displays fake scan results, creates fake malware files in order to trick you into thinking you are infected, and is bundled with or installed by malware. When the program is installed, it will be configured to automatically scan your computer when you log into Windows. The installer will also create numerous randomly named files on your hard drive. When Antivirus Pro 2010 scans your computer it will detect these files and state that they are infections, but will not allow you to remove them until you purchase the program. In reality, the files that the installer creates are harmless and pose no threat to your computer. They are only being created to validate the scan results and further trick you into thinking your computer is infected.

As we have already mentioned, AntivirusPro2010 is promoted through the use of Braviax infection. This Trojan virus displays fake security alerts in your Windows task bar that promotes the misleading application. Usually it states that your computer is unprotected and that you should activate your antivirus software. The Trojan may also display warnings about various malware infections. While running, AntivirusPro_2010 will impersonate Windows Security Center and state that anti-virus software is outdated or disabled. Do not trust it, it’s a scam.
