Eliminate Total Security

What is Total Security?

Total Security is dangerous rogue spyware, also known as rogue anti-spyware, rogue security programs, or scareware. It is designed to overwhelm you with simulated virus scans and fake security warnings that your computer is infected. The reason for this is to try and scare you into purchasing the full version of the bogus software by making you think that only the full version can remove the infections, when, in fact, Total Security IS the infection.

For obvious reasons it is very important that you don't fall for this hoax. It is equally important that you remove Total Security from your computer just as soon as you possibly can because there are many other very scary things that it can do to your computer and to you. The worst of these is that it is capable of stealing your sensitive personal information through the use of key loggers and web trackers. It then can send this information to a remote host where some less than scrupulous people are waiting to use your information for their own personal gain.
