Nowadays, a variety of computer viruses make netizens fearful. At the same time, all sorts of antivirus software arise at the right moment. This also leads to many hackers making fake antiviruses for illegal excessive profit. System Protection Tools is such one fake antivirus.

Introduction of System Protection Tools

System Protection Tools gives you a first impression that you think it’s an antivirus software. In fact, it’s indeed a virus very similar to  Windows Antivirus Care, another infamous fake series. This program is classified as a rogue as it displays false information in order to trick you into purchasing the program. The interface of it looks like legit, friendly and helpful. In fact, it absolutely plays a role of villain. It’s a virus indeed which hides on nasty malicious websites or in bundled downloads, camouflaged as fake video codecs or spam email attachments. System Protection Tools prepares to attack PCs anytime once it gets an opportunity. The chance can be one of your careless operation such as a visit to some malicious sites, click a cataleptic video or advertisement link, etc. No matter in which way, it will automatically install in your computer without your notice and permission. Once the rogue is installed on your computer it will be configured to start automatically when Windows starts. Every time you start your computer, System Protection Tools will run as computer internet security software by pretend to scan and kill virus for you. After not a long time, it will pop up a fake scan alert notification claiming that your computer has been infected much virus and your computer is in extremely dangerous condition. If you attempt to use the program to remove these infections, though, it will state that you first need to purchase it before it can do so. This is a scam as the scan results are all fake, and in many cases, the infected files do not even exist on your computer. What is worse, it blocks legitimate Windows applications. It will also block many of the infected computer’s normal functions, for example, Windows Task Manager and Registry editor. Therefore, please ignore the scan results. Do not waste any of your time with System Protection Tools, and, most importantly, do not spend any money on its licensed version, because this antispyware application is completely fake.
