Information about Trojan.Zlob.G – another trick application
Trojan.Zlob.G is a rogue application. It is another application made by the same group of people who also created a well known fake anti-spyware Perfect Defender 2009. Actually it works like all the others fake applications out there. The first sign that your computer might be infected whit Trojan.Zlob.G would be a pop-up windows popping up on you screen. Of course all the alerts that was shown in those pop up windows are fallacious. It also can inform you about your browser vulnerabilities, which of course are also fake. If you click on this alert you will be redirected to the website which sells PerfectDefender2009. From this moment everything goes contrariwise. You will get other pop up windows which now claim that you are infected with Trojan.Zlob.G and need to purchase a ‘lecensed’ version of Perfect Defender 2009 software. So, don’t be tricked, if you will see similar alerts or your system acts strange, scan it with real anti-spyware application.
