How to remove Graffiti-blogger.com hijacker

Malware Description:
The other day, a reverse IP analysis of known malware domains took us to Graffiti-blogger.com website. The moment we visited it we realized it was a home web page of Antivirus GT rogue anti-spyware program. Although the domain name structure is not very characteristic of regular malware sites, Graffiti-blogger.com is evidently meant to distribute the payload for the scareware solution we mentioned. It contains some misleading information Antivirus GT, stating that it’s a ‘complete security solution’ that combats all existing viruses and helps protect your identity. According to Graffiti-blogger.com, Antivirus GT features antimalware defense identity theft protection. If we didn’t know what sort of software Antivirus GT is in fact, we could actually fall for what Graffiti-blogger.com tells as the site has a really nice design and looks fairly trustworthy. Also, Graffiti-blogger.com contains a fictitious Support function which can allegedly help you resolve some security issues by sending out a corresponding request to the ‘technical support team’. However, if you can get any assistance through that option – it’s going to be only something like ‘Please register the full version of Antivirus GT, with a money-back guarantee’ and deceptive stuff like that. You should treat Graffiti-blogger.com site with caution. Although we so far have no evidence of Antivirus GT redirecting to Graffiti-blogger.com, we assume this is the destination of this hijacker. So, in case you ran into browser rerouting to Graffiti-blogger.com, you should be careful enough to refrain from pushing options there other than to close the web browser. It certainly goes without saying that buying the software promoted by Graffiti-blogger.com is a bad idea. In case you ran into the site we are describing in this entry, we advise you check your computer for unsafe items such as trojans, in the first place. And remember – Antivirus GT program does not belong inside your PC since it’s a rip-off tool that does nothing good.
