Isafe Antivirus is Malware!
Some greater security threats live on Internet than the rogue security tools.

In addition, they take it step further, and going from merely annoying to unapologetically criminal.

Concept that the iSafe Antivirus & its ilk operate is very simple. Secretly infect computer, make user think they are an only ones who will eliminate it, charge them arm & leg for it, and do not deliver as it is promised. That is a fraud in summary.
“How iSafe Antivirus infects computer?” you may ask. They lie at an infected websites and websites than not engage watching videos, particularly ones that may involve the copyright violations by the presence. The adult content sites are noted as infected. The web is easily cloned, thus there is no answer on how you can avoid them.
The infection from an iSafe Antivirus starts at a moment you will click on infected icon. It also shows you are downloading video codec that is in fact Zlob Trojan Downloader. This entire program bypasses computer’s security & installs the iSafe Antivirus.
From there, the iSafe Antivirus will take over and you get pop up that will ask you in case you would like to scan, and irrespective of your answer, it begins. It after that tells you your computer has virus infection. Not only any virus infection, however mother of infections and your computer will have crashed if it is true.
iSafe Antivirus then tells you to get full version in order to clean up the computer and this is where truly criminal part starts. First, it is fraud, in case you are lucky and software does not work; it is only one shell program. However that is not as bad it gets.
