Information about Additional Guard

Additional Guard is a program, which masquerades as a legitimate and more than capable infection removal tool, but is actually a fake program, and a parasite, which is known for the illicit means it uses to spread and sell it's software. Additional Guard typically gains entrance to the system by using various trojans, and drive-by downloads, and relies on deception to trick users into purchasing it's "licensed version".

After infecting the system, Additional Guard spams the user with popups, claiming his system is infected. Though the apparent immediacy of the alert might urge the user to download Additional Guard, he should not do that, because these claims of infection have no basis whatsoever. Much like any other rogue, this one performs fake system scans, marking false positives, and asking for money in order to remove "detected" threats.

Additional Guard is a threat and should be removed immediatelly.
