Crusader Antivirus

Crusader Antivirus is just another fake antivirus program that wants to scam you out of your money.

All Crusader Antivirus does is give false alarms as it ties to scare with fake security alerts for threats that aren’t even on your computer to trick you into buying the full version. Reading a book about the Crusades will protect your computer better than Crusader Antivirus which can’t even pick up the Trojan that would have put it on your computer in the first place.

I’m not sure why the scammers would choose the name “Crusader Antivirus”. I know history is often revised, perhaps Jerusalem was besieged by Spyware and Viruses during the Crusades. It will probably make it’s way into the next Dan Brown novel.

There are no detailed instructions to remove Crusader Antivirus yet so in the mean time, just follow these instructions:

Click Start > Run: Type MSCONFIG, Click OK, Uncheck “Load Startup Items”, click OK and restart your computer when prompted. This should stop those annoying popups and make following give the Crusader Antivirus manual removal instructions easier. Also see if there is a folder in your “Program Files” called “Crusader Antivirus”. If it is there, delete it.
