1.Description
Live Security Platinum belongs to a category of corrupt anti-virus programs. It hides a latent threat for all computers worldwide. It tends to fool the gullible Internet users and push them into buying its non-existent commercial version.
2. Typical rogue behavior inside the affected computer system
As other malwares of this type, this fraudware squeezes into your system without being noticed. Upon successful installation the virus mimics the behavior of the decent anti-viruses. It creates an illusion of scanning the computer system and ends up reporting various infections and says that your system requires immediate help.
