Antivir64 malware and its fake alerts
Antivir64 is corrupt anti-virus; therefore it isn’t able to detect any computer infections. Antivir 64 reports fabricated threats instead of scanning a computer for malwares. It attacks people with alerts in order to scare them and push them into buying full version of Antivir64.The strategy is fraudulent because full version does not exists.
Antivir64 usually displays alerts related to Backdoor.SdBot.gen, CoolWebSearch(CWS).win32 and N-case.win32 infections. Do not expect Antivir 64 to delete the infections; all of the supposedly detected threats are non-existent. The pop-ups about Backdoor.SdBot.gen, N-case.win32 and CoolWebSearch(CWS).win32 disappear when Antivir 64 is deleted.
The Backdoor.SdBot.gen, CoolWebSearch(CWS).win32 and N-case.win32 malwares are very old. There are computer parasites named like that, but the possibility to get infected with old malwares is very small. If your antivirus reports Backdoor.SdBot.gen, N-case.win32 and CoolWebSearch(CWS).win32, make sure it’s not malicious antivirus like Antivir64.
