The Internet Security 2011 virus is known to have caused numerous infections to hundreds of computers and counting. During its stay in the system, it extracts all sorts of information it can gather to be resold; these include personal details such as passwords, account numbers, credit card numbers, etc. This malicious file first installs in a hidden folder and then spreads copies into applications and programs; thus, causing widespread infection. If left alone, it can cause severe system failure. Do not fret, however, because there is a simple method in taking out a virus like this one.
Before going into the details of the infection removal, we need to know exactly the type of virus we are dealing with. Experts have coined this type of virus that uses a file to cause damage in computers as "malware", which is short for "malicious software". It runs as a fake antivirus program and produces system scans. Though these scans are all fake, users are often led to believe that it is a legitimate program since it even posts results of infections. What the program does is alert the user to supposed impending errors if he or she does not buy an upgrade to the antivirus program. Those who fall into the trap are only paying for a fake upgrade that does nothing. Once the user becomes aware of the virus, the Windows programs and applications will start to be blocked, making the computer unable to defend itself. The first indication of problems is when the user attempts to open Task Manager and finds they cannot do so. Actually, they will find that most of Windows features and programs that can counter the virus will have been blocked.
This virus is a piece of software which will install itself here:
c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\
Steps To Remove The Internet Security 2011 Infection From Your PC
The first option the user has is to take out the virus manually. The user should be familiar with using the Safe Mode or "rkill" program because these are backdoor programs that can access the computer activities. Terminate the programs, applications and other activities that the virus runs. By killing its processes, it's possible to stop the infection from spreading, and then all that remains for you to do is delete the virus. Find the location of the virus, delete, and remove the other infected files. The process may take a long time, but it is effective. For users who are not comfortable with using these programs, there is another option.
The second (and most effective) way of removing Internet Security 2011 is to make use of an automated "anti-malware" tool that can work just as efficiently as the manual method, but is perhaps faster and easier for many people. We've found the best tool to remove this virus is one called the Frontline Rogue Remover. It is a program that can be downloaded with ease and performs the manual method without having the user having to do any of the actual work involved. The user will just have to download, install and run. The program will take care of eliminating the virus and all its infections; it is guaranteed to do so since it is a known powerful anti malware program. As for the virus hidden files, the user should clean out the registry to make sure none of these still exist.
