A new false antivirus scam has just been released onto the Internet - called "PC Protection Center". This virus is a common infection that's been created by hackers to try and get you to buy the fake upgrade to the program, and is continually installing itself automatically onto systems around the World in an attempt to get you to buy the fake upgrade to the program. The good news is that there's now a working tutorial to get rid of this infection for good from your computer - which works.
What Is PC Protection Center?
This is a virus known as a "malware" (malicious software) infection - a type of virus that basically installs a legitimate tool onto your PC and will then use it to try and get you to buy the fake upgrade to the program. Despite the application looking relatively legitimate, it's a total scam and needs to be removed in the most effective & reliable way to ensure the continued security of your computer.
If you have this virus on your system, you need to be able to get rid of it in the most effective way possible - a process that can be achieved by first stopping the virus from running and then removing all of its fake program files. The only problem with PC Protection Center is that this virus will continually block your Task Manager, Internet Options and other important settings on your system. It will also typically install itself automatically onto your computer from the likes of a fake email attachment, rogue download or malicious website.
How To Remove PC Protection Center
Removing this virus can be done in the most effective way by first stopping the infection from running, and then getting rid of it from your computer.
Step 1 - Stop The Virus From Running
The way to get rid of this infection is to first stop the virus from running. This can be done by performing the following steps:
Restart your PC
Before Windows even starts to load, press F8 continually
On the "boot menu", press "Start In Safe Mode"
This will load up Safe Mode
Safe Mode is a very important part of Windows which has been designed to act like a debug application for your computer - working to load up your PC without any of the software or drivers that are currently operating on your system. Because PC Protection Center is actually a piece of software, loading up your computer into safe mode will stop the infection from running, allowing you to properly remove it from your system.
Step 2 - Remove The Virus' Files From Your PC
The way to then get rid of the infection is to, after stopping it from loading, remove all the files it requires to run. This will basically allow your computer to run as reliably as possible again, getting rid of all the infected parts of the virus in the most effective way. We've found that the best way to get rid of the infection is to use a piece of software called a "malware removal tool" - a piece of software that's been created to scan through your PC and get rid of all the infected parts of the virus. We've found that a program called Frontline Rogue Remover is able to get rid of the infection you have on your computer.
