How to remove WiniFighter fake antispyware

Published: Thursday, August 6th, 2009

WiniFighter (also known as Wini Fighter) is a fake spyware removal utility that substituted another rogue called WinBlueSoft which hails from the same malware family. WiniFighter trial version usually infiltrates one’s PC in the shape of trojan viruses that exploit security gateways and browser vulnerabilities of the targeted system. When WiniFighter unregistered version gets integrated with the host computer, it displays numerous ads and system tray notifications that denote the detection of malicious activity. Additionally, WiniFighter triggers system scanners that pretend to skip through the system drives and then return admittedly fabricated results. Both WiniFighter alerts and its phony scanners attempt to get you scared about your system integrity and your own privacy. Eventually, WiniFighter won’t fail to recommend installing its commercial version and purchase its license for removing the allegedly detected malicious applications. It’s essential not to fall victim of this fraud scheme, so refrain from registering WiniFighter as it will ruin your system instead of protecting it. If you happened to get attacked by WiniFighter unregistered, remove the nasty rogue in the shortest possible terms (please, see removal guide below).
