Windows Optimization & Security Removal Guide

Windows Optimization & Security Removal Guide
Windows Optimization & Security is a fake antivirus program that look like a legitimate antivirus such as Kaspersky Antivirus which can protect the computer from the attack of viruses, malwares or trojans. However, Windows Optimization & Security cannot detect and remove any kind of virus, malware or trojan on the computer. When Windows Optimization & Security is installed in the computer, it will start automatically when Windows boot and then will do a fake scan on the computer and will surely scare the user with pop ups which show that the computer has been infected by a lot of malwares, viruses and trojans. Do not believe any pop ups shown by Windows Optimization & Security. Windows Optimization & Security will recommend the user to purchase the full version of Windows Optimization & Security in order to remove all the detected threats. Do not buy Windows Optimization & Security as it can do nothing.

Windows Optimization & Security can be removed by stop processes and kill all files with random name in the hard drives. The user also must remove the autorun setting added by Windows Optimization & Security. These can be done by using Emsisoft HiJackFree.

Windows Optimization & Security should be removed immediately!
