Information about PC Guardian 2010

PC Guardian 2010 is one more malicious program imitating a security tool. It manipulates on computer users by telling them fake information about system infections and then offers purchasing its program as a solution to security problems.

Actually, everything PC Guardian 2010 related is fake. At the very beginning of infiltration (which is done by employing Trojans) PC Guardian 2010 is configured to start automatically when computer is booted. The first thing you will probably notice once your system is infected with this rogue is a system scan run by PC Guardian 2010. The scan is performed after each login to Windows. You must beware that it gives fabricated scan results so please don’t fall for an offer to purchase PC Guardian 2010 in order to remove the infections as the infections displayed are not real.
