Fake antivirus via simple misspelling bakersfieldcaliornian
Do NOT attempt to recreate this video. Misspell “bakersfield californian” on Yahoo Search and look what happens. Antivirus 2009 is a new rogue anti-spyware program. Like any other of its predecessors, Antivirus 2009 uses Trojans, such as Zlob or Vundo, to spread. Antivirus 2009 is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it. If the user agrees to download and buy it, Antivirus 2009 not only does NOT fix the errors, but will offer to take the user’s credit card and may even install additional spyware into the victim’s computer. Interestingly enough the virus is coming from vistasearch.org registered in Ukraine. Be safe, Billy ComputerWild.com
