Virusheat
Ever heard of anti spyware program called "Virusheat"? Stay out of it at all cost. Do not believe in it.
Yesterday as I was downloading one piece from some website, I caught this so-called virus or spyware. This is a totally new website that I tried because the original website doesn't have the sub version.
When I want to download One piece, it prompted me to download something in order to do so. I thought it should be ok since I hadn't got any virus or spyware for a long time. Maybe there is, but at least I didn't see it unless I scan it.
After the download, lots of popup occurred! A little flashing Windows taskbar icon also appeared at the bottom right corner. It also come with some texts.
And whenever I clicked on that icon, it will bring me to it's website to buy the product. It doesn't matter right click or left click, they both bring you to the website. There is no way you can end task it or make it disappear.
Up until this part, you would have been very scare. Your mind is all about removing the program and hope nothing had happened before. This is the trick that hooked me into giving it's product a try. Never had I knew it was just another scam in a hoax.
The fake scanning results. If you had got this virus or spyware, you would have the same results as me! It's purpose is to make you purchase it's product.
The current IT world is a very cruel one. The cure could be yet another diseases. They created a storyline that got you so scared and provide you with another conclusion. It is ideal that we do not trust anything from anyone on the internet.
I couldn't explain how I was feeling yesterday after getting the virus or spyware. I kind of have a feeling that I got cheated and it's very stupid of me to believe in things like that. I am sure I almost cried and came to a point of depression. I kept telling my younger sis never to accept anything from anyone through MSN. And here I am, not following the advises that came out from my own mouth.
I guess people make mistakes like this. Luckily for me, the "problem" had a solution. I was able to go to www.yahoo.com and search for "How to remove Virusheat". There were lots of people like me who got scam.
Click here for the removal instructions. It works for me and I hope I help.
