How to Get Rid Off Vista Antivirus

Written by OSAblog on Saturday, August 8th, 2009

There are a number of computer users all over the world who have infected with Vista Antivirus. Vista Antivirus is a rough spyware that spreads rapidly from one PC to another via internet. Though it is termed as ‘antivirus’ it does not work as an antivirus at all. Rather it works exactly in the opposite manner. It invades into your computer and spreads different types of malicious adware, malware and spyware. It constantly disturbs you with irritating pop ups containing messages like:

1. “Your computer is infected, Windows has detected spyware infection!”
2. “Warning! Spyware detected on your computer.
3. “ Your system is infected with a dangerous virus!”

The sole intensions of all these warnings and pop up ads are to scare you and scam your valuable money. There you may get a link to download and install Vista Antivirus program to eliminate the infection. But all these are fake. Once you get afraid and download the complete fake version of this malicious software your PC is gone. As it itself is a nasty spyware instead of removing infection it will spread the infection even more.

Therefore, it is necessary to get rid off this rough program as soon as you get the trace of it in your computer. But as it spreads lots of malicious files throughout your system it can be difficult for you to remove it manually.

All that you need to have a good virus removal tool to eliminate this infection completely from your PC. Once you get those pop ups it means that the registry of your PC have already got infected. But unfortunately most of all antivirus software cannot execute a thorough scan of the registry.

While removing Vista Antivirus you should choose a good virus removal tool available in the market instead of a cheap one. It may cost you a little money but it will also perform regular scans and offer real time protection to your PC in future.
