Personal Antivirus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Personal Antivirus Personal Antivirus is rogue anti-virus software created by a company named Innovagest (sometimes referred to as "Innovagest 2000"), and is related to other rogue software.〔"Aurelija". Can Personal Antivirus Make Your PC Safer? (). PC1News.com. September 4, 2009.〕 It claims to be an anti-virus program, but instead merely displays false warnings about virus and spyware infections, and demands money to clean these infections.〔Richmond, Riva. What to Do If You Saw an 'Anti-Virus' Pop-Up Ad. (). ''The New York Times''. September 14, 2009.〕 ==Description==
A common way that Personal Antivirus installs itself on a computer is through a malicious pop-up ad (though it may also be installed as part of a malicious video codec package).〔"Aurelija". Can Personal Antivirus Make Your PC Safer? (). PC1News.com. September 4, 2009.〕 When a user visits a website hosting a Personal Antivirus ad, a pop-up window appears, claiming to be scanning the computer for virus infections. This "scan" inevitably finds a number of virus infections. Afterward, the user is told that they need to buy Personal Antivirus to clean these infections, and is directed to a site that accepts payments. If the user decides to buy and install the program, Personal Antivirus claims to have repaired the infections, but also regularly advertises additional programs or demands more money at regular intervals.〔Vance, Ashlee. Times Web Ads Show Security Breach. (). ''The New York Times''. September 14, 2009.〕
