Information about Antivirus Live
Antivirus Live is a generic rogue anti-spyware with a generic name and an equally generic method of operation. This parasite is essentially a fake spyware remover, which relies on various trojans and drive-by downloads to enter the system. Typically users get infected after downloading a fake flash update, or something of the sort. Antivirus Live tries to mislead users into purchasing it's "full version" by using various illicit means.
Antivirus Live floods the user with regular popups and tray popups, all of which say that the system is infected. The popups link to the purchase page of this useless program. Antivirus Live performs fake system scans, which produce falsified results, marking legitimate files as worms, trojans, spyware, adware, etc. Occasionally these files can even be crucial system processes.
Antivirus Live might also hijack the browser and block legitimate security software, as well as disable certain system services
There are no good reasons why you should download Antivirus Live - the only thing you'll gain is a slow system and tons of popups. Remove it immediatelly upon detection.
