Cyber Security

Cyber Security is the latest rogue anti-spyware application, which was designed to attempt to dupe unsuspecting PC users into believing their dubious tactics to be true, and ultimately persuade them into purchasing the full version of this nefarious application.

Cyber Security, also known as CyberSecurity, is believed to be a replica of Total Security and System Security.

Cyber Security usually spreads by using browser hijackers to redirect the user to websites hosting fake online system scans and thus tricking him into downloading the program.

As is typical of rogue anti-spyware software like this, Cyber Security doesn’t deviate much from the typical and most widely practiced tactics of PC parasite infiltration. Cyber Security tends to also make use of affiliated backdoor Trojan infections, usually Trojan Vundo or Zlob, in order to ensure hidden penetration into the targeted machine is successful.

Once inside the designated system, Cyber Security will obscurely create hundreds of fake malware entities in the infiltrated system. Once this is done, Virus Remover Professional will then “detect” these dummy files and ensure the unsuspecting user, you, think it’s high time you removed all the reported malware.

Cyber Security’s malicious trialware usually runs each time you log onto Windows and will display its fake system scanner that claims to find a variety of corrupted dangerous files.

As a well-practiced tactic, Cyber Security will have you believe that in order to protect your Operating System against these “detections”, you will be prompted to install Cyber Security full commercial version which demands payment.

Cyber Security has the following properties:

- Changes browser settings
- Shows commercial adverts
- Stays resident in background

If you do install Cyber Security licensed software, you will soon realize that it’s not only worthless in terms of malware removal, but it compromises any computer systems’ performance and will eventually slow down the computer considerably.

One should remove the Cyber Security rogue anti-spyware application as soon as it has been detected.

So, how would you know if your system has been infected with Cyber Security or not?
Well, this is simple enough.

A system that has been infected with Cyber Security may tend to display the following basic symptoms, which a computer user should look out for:

• Slow computer performance:
It just takes one parasite like Cyber Security to slow down a computer dramatically. If your PC takes longer than usual to reboot, or if your Internet connection is unusually slow, you may be infected with XP Deluxe Protector.

• New desktop shortcuts or switched homepage:
Badware like Cyber Security may change your Internet settings to redirect your homepage to another website. Badware can even add desktop shortcuts to your PC. It is also not uncommon for this type of malware to change legitimate websites, such as www.google.com, and use them to further create the illusion that your system is I danger – by adding aggressive advertising to the homepage you will be directed to.

• Annoying pop-up messages:
Badware can bombard your computer with popup ads, even when you’re not online. Through these pop-up messages, you may be tricked into downloading more spyware.

Manual removal is probably your best bet at maintaining the integrity of your computer, but manual removal should only be tried by those individuals that know a bit about registry files, and should be left to the individual who knows how to navigate their way around system files.

All in all though, I would recommend, especially if you are not completely tech savvy, to make use of a reliable and legitimate, fully functional, up-to-date anti-spyware application, to remove Virus Remover Professional and all its components from the infected computer system.
