Hijacks Internet Explorer by modifying the proxy settings and automatically opens porn websites every now and then. IE is allowed to visit only the sites related to this rogue.
Scareware like Antivirus Protection are commonly installed when users are redirected to fake online scanner pages, fraudulent porn sites, illegal cracks/warez sites and fake ‘video codec required’ pages distributed through out the Web by cyber criminals using blackhat SEO techniques, Spam and Malicious flash advertisements.
