AV Security Suite
AV Security Suite is a piece of scareware and malware, or more specifically a piece of rogue security software, which poses as a pre-installed virus scanner on a victim's computer system. It is currently known to affect only Microsoft Windows systems, though may simply operate under a different name on other platforms to better fit in with their user-interfaces, as its disguise is a key component of its success. In the task manager it appears as a string a random characters that end with "tssd.exe" – an example is yvyvsggtssd.exe. It also can show a random string of characters that end with "shdw.exe".
==Methods==
After being installed on a target system, AV Security Suite sends out simulated virus alerts using pop-up windows that open from the rightmost section of the task bar. These notifications appear the same as those used by Windows itself, so can look genuine to a user not familiar with Windows' own style of reporting viruses (Windows Defender). AV Security Suite will show results of a fictitious virus scan,〔(BleepingComputer - AV Security Suite )〕 this time using its own name, informing the user that their system is infected by viruses. Using a variety of different messages, some imitating Windows and some under the software's real name, it instructs the user to upgrade to the full version of AV Security Suite to remove the viruses. It then fakes the presence of unspecific viruses by performing actions such as preventing the opening of any programs (including Windows Task Manager)〔(Virus Removal Guru - AV Security Suite )〕 and blocking internet connections. In essence, it renders a system almost useless. Since it is disguised as an anti-virus program, it is not considered to be a virus to any accessible anti-virus or anti-spyware programs.
