How to remove AVG Antivirus 2011 rogue anti-spyware

Malware Description:
The recently emerged AVG Antivirus 2011 (alias: AVG Anti-Virus) application is a shameless forgery made by cyber crooks with the cruelest of intensions. First off, we would like you to never confuse this scareware with the trusted, legitimate and efficient software from AVG vendor. As of now, you should beware as the bad malware guys are gradually increasing illicit traffic to fake scan websites distributing the fabricated AVG Antivirus 2011 which is a clone of the nasty Antivirus 8 phony AV tool. That means you may fall victim of this fraud during a casual Internet surfing session. All it takes for you to ‘catch’ the AVG Antivirus 2011 malady is for you to click some ad on the web (of course you will not know this ad is bundled with a little cunning trojan virus). So, let’s move on and describe the way AVG Antivirus 2011 behaves when on your machine. It will organize its ‘housewarming’ on your workstation with a scan that pops up once the trojan drags in some malicious files and remakes a few things in your Operating System. The scanner triggered by AVG Antivirus 2011 is an absolute fake, so don’t even bother trying to remove the infections it reports. In other words, AVG Antivirus 2011 deliberately invents some threats so that you think you got serious malware problems. Another symptom is the browser hijack resulting in forcible rerouting to counterfeit Internet warnings reading ‘About Internet Explorer Emergency Mode’. This wrongful impression may become the basis for your further mistakes. If AVG Antivirus 2011 manages to persuade you that its scan report and the security notifications are real, chances are you go ahead and end up paying for its licensed copy. In this context, please remember one essential fact – AVG Anti-Virus does not and cannot find real badware hazards. Does it therefore make sense removing those? Of course not. The must-do thing is to uninstall AVG Antivirus 2011 though. Now, here is another trick – the scareware is likely to keep you from eradicating it. It will probably block the execution of antimalware programs that you install or have on your machine already. Consequently, if the scamware goes that aggressive on you, it’s recommended that you boot into Safe Mode before sticking to the below cleaning instructions of ours. We wish you patience and luck in AVG Antivirus 2011 scam removal.
