AntiVirusBEST, also referred to as AntiVirus BEST, is installed onto a computer system via a Trojan infection, or might even enter into the system when the user visits malicious and dubious websites, which contain the virus in scripts embedded within.
And no – this application will not be able to assist you any way, shape or form. This program is dubious and was designed to have harmful functionality.

AntiVirusBEST is believed by many experts to have been developed by the same creators of Antivirus 2009, a known rogue anti-spyware program.

“AntivirusBEST.
System files modification alert!
