E-Set Antivirus 2011.


E-Set Antivirus 2011 is a rogue security program from the same family as the fake AVG Antivirus 2011.
This rogue anti-virus is distributed via fake online scanners mostly appearing on infected websites. These anti-malware scanners offer installing free E-Set Antivirus 2011 which additionally initiates numerous problems for user. Once installed, it will run fake system scan on your computer for viruses and display numerous infections, mostly spyware, adware, Trojans and other malware. E-Set Antivirus 2011 will prompt you to pay for a full version of the program to remove supposedly found malware from your computer. If E-Set Antivirus 2011 has infected your computer you should remove it as soon as possible. It's a scam, so don't purchase it. Instead, please use the removal instructions below to remove E-Set Antivirus 2011 from your computer either manually or with an automatic removal tool. Though it may look trustworthy and legitimate, remember that only those programs that you download from official websites can be trusted.

While E-Set Antivirus is running, it will constantly display fake security alerts and weird pop-ups about non-existent infections in your computer. The main goal of this fake antivirus program is to scare you into thinking that your computer is infected. These fake security alerts will pop up like every two or five minutes and will claim that your computer is under attack or baldy infected with Trojans and other malware that can even steal your passwords and other sensitive information.

Kill malicious Processes from Task Manager:
  •  e-set.exe

  3.  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "E-Set 2011" = '%ProgramFiles%\E-Set 2011\e-set.exe'
Although it is possible to manually remove E-Set Antivirus 2011, such activity can permanently damage your system if any mistakes are made in the process, as advanced spyware parasites are able to automatically repair themselves if not completely removed. Thus, manual spyware removal is recommended for experienced users only, such as IT specialists or highly qualified system administrators. For other users, we recommend  malware and spyware removal applications.

After removing all these files, restart your computer and the issue will be fixed. And don’t forget to do update your Security Software, check the Firewall Settings and the Operating System and finally do a full system scan with the Security Software.
