Another name for those viruses is “scareware”. You will find those programs on websites “nice looking” using different malware ways on your local system. So a name of such application is “Trust Doctor”. This program will automatically install itself on your computer after you got infected by Trojans. Once on your PC, this threat will scan your PC (it’s a false scan) for infections. You will get a full report saying your PC is highly infected and that you need to buy the full version of this program to clean everything.
