Need to remove Antivirus 2009 from your computer? Antivirus 2009 is a spyware program which also has cloned Antivirus 2008, using mostly Zlob and Vundo to spread. Once you receive the computer infection, it generates fake system notifications, claiming that your computer is infected. Removing Antivirus 2009 should be done immediately so you can avoid this malicious spyware. The Antivirus disguises itself as a legitimate security tool for viruses and trojans, when this program is spyware itself. Once you do a system scan, it shows fake viruses and will direct you to a fraudulent website to purchase a full Antivirus software.
