Antivirstat.net

Antivirstat.net is the latest dubious website, which one should definitely stay clear of. Affiliated with the infamous rogueware: Antivir Solution Pro, Antivirstat.net is designed to promote this rogue antispyware, and continually bombard the user with instructions to purchase the full version of Antivir Solution Pro.

Being the latest malicious website associated with rogue antispyware, also considered a Browser hijacker application, Antivirstat.net should not be taken lightly!

Further categorized as a rogue browser hijacker, antispybase.net advertises the fake application: Antivir Solution Pro security program. Antivirstat.net tends to trick users into believing their PC is infected and redirects the user’s browser to the web pages that promote fraudulent registered versions of Antivir Solution pro.

This is a fraud for the mere fact that malware has no ability to detect and remove security threats.

What this entails is that Antivirstat.net will make use of covert and/or undocumented tactics to ensure a way of penetrating a computer system; once embed within a system, it will then redirect the browser to its affiliate websites.

Antivirstat.net is known to contain the following properties:

- Creates a startup registry entry.
- Registers a 32-bit in-process server DLL.
- Registers a Browser Helper Object (Microsoft\'s Internet Explorer plug-in module).
- Contains characteristics of an identified security risk.

One will need to remove all traces of Antivirstat.net from the infected computer system, as soon as it has been detected. The thing about Antivirstat.net, and many malware applications, is the fact that it is extremely difficult to delete from an infected system.

All in all, I would recommend that one should make use of a reliable and legitimate, fully functional, up-to-date anti-spyware application, to remove Antivirstat.net and all its components from the infected computer system.
