Windows Antivirus 2008

Windows Antivirus 2008 (WindowsAntivirus2008),a clone of Antivirus 2008, Antivirus2008Pro is another rogue anti-spyware application that becomes very annoying. Usually, Windows Antivirus 2008 is downloaded and installed via Zlob Trojans, which masquerade as video or audio codecs, such as Video ActiveX Codec or Flash Activex Object Error required viewing a movie or listening to an audio file. These fake codecs will start showing fake security warnings whichl offer to test Windows Antivirus 2008.
Once Windows Antivirus 2008 is installed, it will scan your computer and provide exaggerated or false results stating that the only way to clean these "infections" is to purchase the commercial version of Windows Antivirus 2008 application. Needless to say, Windows Antivirus 2008 is not going to clean your computer from spyware but might actually expose you to more security threats.

    The FBI has been contacted and have apparently been able to locate the physical location of the developer and its principals as well.
