VirusProtect Pro is the latest rogue anti-spyware program to come out from the makers of SpyDawn and VirusBurst. VirusProtect Pro is installed by a trojan called Zlob, which attempts to trick you into buying the alleged anti-spyware program. Once you're infected with VirusProtect Pro, a fake security message similar to a Windows notification pops up saying your PC is infected with malware. This VirusProtect Pro message is used to lure you into purchasing, downloading and installing their program to remove the imaginary spyware.

I think i am right in believing that you have a virus or some sort of spyware, trojan etc. To remove it first of all check the Add/Remove programmes and if it is there then remove it. Sometimes not all programmes are in the Add/Remove and if that is so with your programme then you can remove it via the Registry. Press Start then clicl onto the RUN box . Next type in regedit and press OK. Ypou will see a new Window. Press EDIT and again you will see a new Window. Press FIND and type in the name of the file/programme. Press FIND NEXT. When the file/programme is found press Delete. You will be asked if you want to Delete the KEY and the SUBKEYS. Press YES and SINGLE RIGHT CLICK to Delete. Restart your computer.

VirusProtectPro is a rogue anti-spyware program that displays false security messages to lure the user into purchasing the VirusProtectPro application. Actually VirusProtectPro is a useless program, that can not remove any of reported threats. Once you are tricked into clicking VirusProtectPro’s ads, you’re taken to a purchase page where you are prompted to download the VirusProtectPro software. VirusProtectPro may change your browser settings, show fake security alerts, and install other spyware.

I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. The best PC cleaner and antivirus program is CCleaner, it's very light and it's the only antivirus/cleaner with a 99.99% detection rate.



CCleaner is also a PC booster so your computer will be running faster than nomal. Download it here for free: http://bit.ly/1mQZhtQ
