Security Essentials 2011

Do developers of rogue security software never get tired? That’s the question I seem to ask myself a lot these days, especially as we are heralded by the arrival of Security Essentials 2011, yet another rogue antispyware application emanating from the Security Essentials 2010 family. What I mean by my question is, do the developers of these rogues think we as consumers are utterly gullible and completely dim-witted? That might not have been the case if consumers did not continue falling for scams such as Security Essentials 2011 and the like.

Making use of clever marketing strategies and blatant scare tactics to successfully tout its worthless software, the determination behind the developers of Security Essentials 2011 should not be underestimated. They will use fake security notifications, take control of your system and break down all inherent security features of your PC in an effort to extort you out of your money. Some of these notifications will read as follows:

“System warning!
Continue working in unprotected mode is very dangerous. Viruses can damage your confidential data and work on your computer. Click here to protect your computer.”

And

“Critical Warning!
Critical System Warning! Your system is probably infected with a version of Trojan-Spy.HTML.Visafraud.a. This may result in website access passwords being stolen from Interner Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Outlook etc. Click Yes to scan and remove threats. (recommended)”

It seems obvious to me that developers of rogue security tools such as Security Essentials 2011 would not continue with their efforts if they did not achieve sufficient success. It is up to consumers to protect their systems against threats like these. If you suspect your system of being compromised by this harmful rogue, take the appropriate action to permanently eliminate Security Essentials 2011 from your system. Do not attempt to manually remove Security Essentials 2011 if you are an inexperienced PC user as you may end up doing more damage than good. Make use of the removal power of a potent security tool to obliterate Security Essentials 2011 for good.
