permalink Power Antivirus 2009 is a rogue antivirus program from the same makers as
Win
Antivir 2008. In fact, Power Antivirus and Win Antivir are exactly the same
program except that the filenames, registry keys, and names are different. They
also act the same; they display false information stating that you are infected,
while not allowing you to remove anything unless you first purchase the software.
Power Antivirus 2009 is advertised through sites that pretend to be online scanners,
which state you are infected and should install Power Antivirus in order to
protect yourself. In reality, though, these scanners are just advertisements
and are doing nothing but promoting the program. So, do not be concerned by
what it says as the information given to you is all fake.
