RapidAntivirus – rogue security tool
RapidAntivirus is another rogue anti-virus program. This fake anti-virus product also known as Rapid Antivirus 2.7 does not make any harm to you computer. It was created to steal money from users. RapidAntivirus is installed by trojans that pretend to be video codecs.
Program runs fake system scan and reports a lot of imaginary system alerts or infected files. A warning message shows up, if you click on it, you will be redirected to following websites rapidantivir.com or rapidantivirus.com to buy this program. This is the main difference from other corrupt programs. On rapidantivirus.com you can find lot of information about program features, but no information about creators of this program. There are even tutorials on how to use RapidAntivirus.
If you already installed it, remove it as soon as possible, because it’s a rogue security tool.
