Win 7 Internet Security 2012 malware program seems to be one of the most serious, persistent and actively attacking rogues as per today. It belongs to the well-known Braviax group of fake anti-spyware applications. The representatives of this group tend to change their name depending on the type of the main operating system of the compromised machine. It is obvious that Win 7 Internet Security 2012 attacks the computers with Windows 7, but we’ve counted at least 15 various modifications of these malwares. All of them are the same as far as the methods of their attacks and behavior on the infected machine are concerned. The name ‘internet security’ is just the useless attempt of malware developers to make users think that there is something legit in their crapware. Whereas the very presence of the hoax in the infected PC does not render any real security while surfing the Internet. Instead, the user would have to deal with a lot of unpleasant system amendments and modifications initiated by Win 7 Internet Security 2012 virus.
It is quite peculiar to all such rogues that they are known to amend the system registry in order to be started automatically with each Windows startup. The program does not even consider whether you would like to encounter it each time you turn your PC on. By the way, if you have a look at the list of applications in the “Add/Remove Programs” section of the Control Panel surely you would not ever discover this application. Why? The answer is quite simple and predictable, of course. Simply because the tool you are facing is a virus and not certain decent application that you personally brought into your computer. Once the fake AV is installed and successfully launched it would run the fake scan of your PC and then would report many infections supposedly detected by it. None of these statements of Win 7 Internet Security 2012 are from the truth actually. The software deceives you the best it can, but this is just the introduction into describing its other evil plots. It would then tell you that in order to deal with all those fake system problems and get rid of inexistent threats you must first obtain its license or registration key. So far, this is the only aim of the hoax, and we hope you will never become its victim.
