Win7 Internet Security 2011 Removal Tutorial

Win7 Internet Security 2011 is a newly released fake antivirus tool that's just a scam. The virus is a fraud which works by showing you a number of fake antivirus scanning results, and will then use these results to try and get you to buy the fake upgrade to the program. In order to stop the program from running, you have to first delete all the parts of the infection which allow it to operate, which is actually quite easy thanks to the way it works.

What Is Win7 Internet Security 2011?

This is a "malware" (malicious software) virus, which has been created to try and get you to purchase the rogue upgrade to this program. The way this virus works is to install an actual piece of software onto your PC, and then use that tool to try and get you to buy the false upgrade to this program. Unfortunately, this program will block the likes of your Task Manager, and a number of other important options which will prevent many people from being able to remove it from their system.

The virus works by installing these files on your system:

  • pw.exe
  • MSASCui.exe

You have to remove these files in order to stop the infection from running; and in order to do this, you need to first stop the virus from actually running.

How To Remove Win7 Internet Security 2011

The way to get rid of this is a 2 step process, which is to first stop the program from running, and then delete all the parts of the infection. The first, and most important, step to doing this is to first restart your PC into "Safe Mode", which can be done by following these steps:

  • Restart your PC
  • Press F8 continually before Windows loads
  • Select "Safe Mode With Networking"

After loading into safe mode, it's then important to delete all the parts of the virus. Our preferred way to do this is to use a program called "XoftSpy" to delete all the settings & files that your system will be using to operate. Although a lot of people will try and use antivirus applications to stop the virus, the best way is to use a spyware removal application to stop the program from actually loading, as these security tools are able to delete its files and settings. The best way to stop this virus from operating is to just treat it like a piece of software - in that you should stop it operating, and then delete it in the most effective way possible.
