Warning: Fake Antivirus software 'antivirusbest' on the prowl
A fake antivirus software is making its way around the Internet, duping users and potentially destroying people’s computers.
The software, called 'antivirusbest', is purportedly a spyware remove, but it will
mislead users by giving out false information.
The program supposedly scans the computer for viruses, then issues a fake warning to the user saying that the computer is heavily infected. It then pushes the users to download fixes, which are just viruses themselves.
Avoid visiting unhealthy website, update your operating system and set it to automatic updates, install legal and trusted antivirus software from a prominent company, or if you already had one, update it and scan your computer.
