Information about Adware.Component.Toolbars

Adware.Component.Toolbars is a fake security report which is generated by scareware Smart Defender PRO. After being installed to the PC, this scareware generally tries to fool the user into paying his money for useless commercial version of Smart Defender PRO. The trick is based on propagating this product using Adware.Component.Toolbars popup which is mostly written like that:

“INFILTRATION ALERT. Your computer is being attacked from Internet. It could be a passworld-stealing attack, a trojan-dropper and so on. DETAILS: Attack from 119.226.114.205; Attacked port: 21373; Threat: Adware.Component.Toolbars. Do you want this program to block this attack?”

No matter if the user is going to click "Yes" or "No" button, he will definitely be transported to the commercial Adware.Component.Toolbars page. Not wasting money and not making a purchase is highly recommended. What is more, the user must get rid of this threat right after detecting it.
