Rogue AV Protection 2012 spreading destruction

It has become increasingly more difficult for users to distinguish between genuine and rogue antispyware applications like AV Protection 2012. This rogue, which emanates from the same family of rogues as OpenCloud Security, enters the system surreptitiously and will remain hidden from the user until it starts its attack against the system. It uses various nefarious tactics to facilitate its surreptitious infiltration of the system. AV Protection 2012 will also do everything in its power to gain the trust of its victims so that it will be easier to rip them off, and this is why you have to erase AV Protection 2012 at the earliest opportunity.

 

Once AV Protection 2012 manages to securely root itself in the system it will start its attack against the system by instigating a fake security scan each time the user logs on to the system. This fake security scan will go on to inform the user that his PC is being attacked, and that he needs to pay for an AV Protection 2012 license in order to stave off these attacks.

 

As a further attack against the system AV Protection 2012 will spam the user with various annoying falsely generated security messages. These annoying messages will appear as popups and will spam the system incessantly. The user will also find that he is unable to connect to the Internet or launch any applications on the infected PC. Extremely poor system performance and increased erratic system behavior will also be severe symptoms of an AV Protection 2012 infection.

 

Stop these annoying symptoms in its tracks by entering any of the following activation keys into the rogue:

 

1196121858
1225242171
1354156739

 

By entering the above activation keys you will only be disabling AV Protection 2012’s symptoms, and you will still need to destroy AV Protection 2012 in order to secure your PC. This can easily and safely be done by enlisting the removal power of a genuine and powerful security tool.

Cloud AV 2012 – same rogue different name

Users familiar with the OpenCloud Security rogue antispyware application will immediately recognize the similarities between this rogue and Could AV 2012, its newest clone. Could AV 2012 enters the system without the user’s acknowledgement and will continue to hide its presence from the user until such time that it is ready to start its attack against the system. It will of course do everything in its power to gain the trust of its victims and thus successfully rip them off. Do not fall victim to this malicious rogue and get rid of Could AV 2012 immediately.

If you are wondering how this rogue manages to infiltrate the system, it makes use of various nefarious infection tactics. These vary from using bogus online malware scanners and seditious browser hijacking websites.

The first clue the user will have as to the presence of Could AV 2012 on the system will come from a falsely generated security scan of the system. This fake scan will inform the user that his PC is being attacked, and that he needs to purchase Could AV 2012 in order to stave off these attacks. Shortly after the fake scan starts the user will start receiving the following fake security alerts:

Security Warning
Your computer continues to be infected with harmful viruses. In order to prevent permanent loss of your information and credit card data theft please activate your antivirus software. Click here to enable protection.

 Security Warning
Malicious programs that may steal your private information and prevent your system from working properly are detected on your computer.
Click here to clean your PC immediately.

These are sonly some of the fake security alerts Could AV 2012 will use to spam and panic the user. It will also cause the system to perform extremely poorly and the user will be unable to launch applications on the infected PC. Enter any of the following activation keys into the rogue and disable all these annoying symptoms

1196121858
1225242171
1354156739

When all is said and done you need to destroy Could AV 2012 with the help of a powerful security tool. This will not only erase Could AV 2012 for good but will also protect your system against similar attacks in future.
