WiniBlueSoft

WiniBlueSoft is just another fake antivirus program that wants nothing more than to scam you out of your money.

I have no idea what the scammers were thinking when they came up with the name “WiniBlueSoft”. Are they trying to get the User mark to thing of Winnie the Pooh whenever they see a WiniBlueSoft fake security alert popup.

“You know, this program is showing all the signs of a type rogue program but darn it, I can’t stop thinking about a beloved children’s character so lets buy it before my nostalgia wears off and I realize I have paid for the honor of being infected.

WiniBlueSoft is known to generate the following popups:

Antivirus 09

Antivirus 09 is another fake antivirus that wants to con you out of your money.

Could the scammers have chosen any more of a dull name than Antivirus 09?

Antivirus 09 will run a security scan on your computer and tell you about all the nasty infections you have on there. Antivirus 09 doesn’t really scan your hard drive, you are just looking at an animation. This means that all those infections Antivirus 09 “found” are completely bogus just like it’s name.

Antivirus 09 is known to generate the following popup:

Malware or Advertising item was detected by Antivirus’09!
Detected Virus:Downloader.Small-772
Malicious object can corrupt your computer files and documents, and steel you personal data such as credit card info or email accounts!
Register to protect from next attack!
VIRUS ATTACK DETECTED!

There aren’t any manual removal instructions yet for Antivirus 09, probably because the anitvirus companies fell asleep as soon as they read it’s name.

For now, 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. Now click Start, Search, All File and Folders, and see if there is a folder called Antivirus 09. If it is there, delete it.
