Security Monitor 2012 steals your money when you pay for the full version of the program, processing your payment through this website: SECURE.ONLINESTARPAYMENT.COM. It leaks your banking information to the criminals behind this rogue and then they can use this financial data to perform various illegal operations.

Security Monitor 2012 is being distributed via browser hijackers and blackhat SEO techniques. It means that if you are forcefully redirected to NET-TESTNEWHARD.US website, and you land there, the rogue’s download is initiated automatically and Security Monitor 2012 is installed automatically. Then the scan window pops up and performs a fake system scan. The results are really disturbing, because Security Monitor 2012 presents you with a list of Trojans and viruses that are supposedly infecting your computer (like Downloader-BLV, TrojanDownloader:JS/Renos and etc). This list should convince you that you must purchase the full version of Security Monitor 2012, to get rid of these parasites.

Apart from the list Security Monitor 2012 also spams you with a variety fake security messages such as:

Security Center
Unauthorized remote connection!
Your system is making an unauthorized personal data transfer to a remote computer!
Warning! Unauthorized personal data transfer is detected! It may be your personal credit card details, logins and passwords, browsing habits or information about files you have downloaded.
To protect your private data, please click "Prevent Connection" button below.

Also Security Monitor 2012 can block your exe files from running telling you that the program must be closed due to the fact that it is infected with malware:

Security Monitor 2012
The application excel.exe was launched successfully but it was forced to shut down due to security reasons. This application infected by a malicious software program which might present damage for the PC. It is highly recommended to make a full scan of your computer to exterminate the malicious programs from it.

Actually there are a lot of users who fall into this trap, because Security Monitor 2012 does look reliable, as if it were a part of the their operating system. And some of the rogue’s icons like IcoActivate, IcoUninstall, IcoHelp or Security Monitor.exe look like legitimate parts of the Windows. The rogue even gives you the website address: SECURITY MONITOR2012.COM; that should project the program as an application you can trust.

However, if you have Security Monitor 2012 in your computer, you must close all the applications and windows that are related to it and then ignore the fake security alert messages received from the rogue. It only wants to push you into paying for a product that does not exist. Rather than that, use the following activation key to “register” Security Monitor 2012:

LIC2-00A6-234C-B6A9-38F8-F6E2-0838-F084-E235-6051-18B3

With the rogue “activated” you will find the removal a lot easier. If you cannot get rid of the rogue on your own, use a reliable computer security application to remove Security Monitor 2012 automatically, and then safeguard your computer against similar infections.
