IE Antivirus or Internet Explorer Antivirus is another in a long line of rogue anti spyware programs. A rogue anti spyware program is a "counterfeit" spyware removal tool developed to frighten you into believing your computer is severely infected with spyware and viruses. Typically the initial infection can happen through a variety of reasons:
1. Inadvertent infection through a bogus codec installation from a multimedia file. The codec is essentially the seed that plants the spyware infection.
2. You are using Internet Explorer and were infected through a security gap in your ActiveX controls. Internet Explorer is very susceptible to spyware and viruses because of ActiveX. I recommend installing Mozilla FireFox to protect yourself against these attacks.
3. You visited or were accidentally redirected to a malevolent website that snuck malware on your computer. This is known as "browser hijacking" which is a very popular feature of IE Antivirus.
Although there are certainly others, these seem to be the most popular causes. Once the initial infection happens you will receive "pop up warnings" claiming your computer has been infected. The adverisements will provide an option to download IE Antivirus.
For those who actually bought the full version be very careful, your identity could be stolen. Performing an IE Antivirus removal procedure is needed to protect yourself and prevent furtherspread of spyware and viruses.
In order to remove IE Antivirus manually you would need to erase about 30-40 malicious files in your hard drive and registry. Removing files from your registry can be extremely dangerous if you don't know what your doing. Eliminating a necessary system file can cause a corruption of your hard drive.
That is why I recommend installing an IE Antivirus remover that can eliminate and prevent future attacks from this dangerous program. If you feel you have been infected follow the link below and scan your computer for free to be certain. When detected you can perform an IE Antivirus removal procedure in just a few minutes!
