Windows Error Correction.

Windows Error Correction is a typical example of rogue anti-spyware that presents itself as legitimate security program while it’s not.

It may be that your legitimate spyware removal tools haven’t been upgraded and Trojans used some security vulnerabilities. This dangerous rogue application should be removed as soon as possible because it may let more viruses inside and additionally leave your computer completely useless.

After being secretly installed without any user’s permission asked, Windows Error Correction virus trial version will also be set to start as soon as PC is rebooted. That’s because of some modifications made by the same Trojans that spread this scamware silently. Windows Error Correction will then start to interrupt its victims with fake alerts that announce numerous viruses detected. They will also be followed by scanners also reporting dangerous viruses found and then recommending purchasing and installing ‘licensed’ version. However, Windows Error Correction is useless and reports only the ones files that have nothing to do with real computer’s situation.
