Windows Rescue Center

Do not fall victim to the insidious and vindictive lies of Windows Rescue Center. This seditious rogue antispyware application was designed not to offer any benefits to an infected PC, but instead to act as a vehicle for unscrupulous cyber criminals to rip you off. Although seemingly legitimate, Windows Rescue Center has no ability to detect or remove any type of threat from the system, and is nothing more than a harmful threat in itself.

Windows Rescue Center enters the system surreptitiously through the user of browser hijacking websites and rubbish online malware scanners. This makes it that much harder for users to identify and remove Windows Rescue Center from the system. The browser hijackers forcefully redirect users from their browsing and search sessions to compromised landing pages where drive-by download tactics will be used to root the infection into the system.

Common symptoms associated with this threat include users being unable to establish Internet connections, the inability to run programs and poor system performance.
At the end of the day you will only be able to take back control of your PC if you immediately get rid of Windows Rescue Center. This can easily be achieved by making use of a genuine and powerful security tool.
