Vista Internet Security 2012

Vista Internet Security 2012 is a name-changing malicious program which could be easily confused with any other legitimate antispyware program. It may arrive at the computer as Vista Antispyware 2012, Vista Antivirus 2012, Vista Security 2012, etc. Whichever version is found on a PC, it is crucial to remove it, because the only goal of the fraudulent program is to obtain money from defenseless computer users that may not be aware of the risk of having a rogue product on a computer.

If you look closer at Vista Internet Security 2012, you will see that cyber criminals did a brilliant job, because the phony program looks like a legitimate application, which, unfortunately, should be removed as soon as detected on a computer. It provides the user with different options or sections, but, most importantly, it “scans” the infected computer and shows what infections are supposedly present in the system. At this point, it is vitally important to ignore those infections and then remove Vista Internet Security 2012 from the system. In addition to infections, the rogue produces simulated alert messages such as presented below:

Virus Intrusion!
Your computer security is at risk. Spyware, worms, and Trojans were detected in the background. Prevent data corruption and credit card information theft. Safeguard your system and perform a free security scan now.

Privacy threat!
Spyware intrusion detected. Your system is infected. System integrity is at risk. Private data can be stolen by third parties, including credit card details and passwords. Click here to perform a security repair.

As false threats and pop-up alerts may be insufficient to make the user acquire the supposed full version, Vista Internet Security 2012 tampers with the registry, which leads to the lock-down of some executable files and internet browsers. For example, instead of the browser’s home page, an alert message is displayed:

Internet Explorer alert. Visiting the site may pose a security threat to your system!

Below you will find another example of how the threat attempts to scare the user when he/she tries to run a program:

Internet explorer is infected with Trojan-BNK.Win32.Keylogger.gen
Private data can be stolen by third parties, including credit card details and passwords.
