Win32 Virus Removal

Windows Antidanger Center is a rogue program that poses as an anti-spyware in order to deceive you into purchasing the full version of Windows Antidanger Center ( which is also a forgery ) and reveal your credit card information.

The infection process is as followed:

First a Trojan infects your system and starts displaying fake security warnings and pop-up messages suggesting that your computer is infected by an Unknown Win32/Trojan. The real Trojan will then prompt you to perform a system scan ( which is also a fake ) and once the fake scan is completed it will state that Trojan.Horse.Win32.PAV.64.a. has been found on your machine. The Trojan will then suggest that the only way to get rid of this threat is by downloading and installing Windows Antidanger Center. Once you agree by pressing OK, Windows Antidanger Center will automatically download and install on your system, after which it will reboot your computer.

Next, once your computer reboots, the Windows Antidanger Center malware will prevent you from accessing your regular desktop screen. Instead, the main Windows Antidanger Center screen where the malware will suggest that you need to scan your computer. In fact, the only way of accessing your regular desktop is by going through this process.

Windows Antidanger Center Removal Guide

Before you are going to start with the disinfection you will need to download the proper tools. You will need to download RKill, Shell.reg and Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware (MBAM), and don’t worry, they’re all free.

In case Windows Antidanger Center will prevent you from accessing the internet you will need to download these three programs from another computer and then transfer them on the infected machine via CD/DVD or any other portable means that you have at hand. Once you get these three programs, follow these steps and you should be free of threats.

1. MBAM is the main disinfection tool, but before it can do its work you will first need to run RKill in order to kill any process that is related with Windows Antidanger Center. After you start RKill, let it scan your system and ignore any possible messages suggesting that RKill is a threat to your computer. Once RKill is done, remember NOT to reboot your system or you will need to repeat this first step.
2. The next step is fixing your Windows desktop by using Shell.reg. If you won’t do so then the next time you will reboot your computer after getting rid of Windows Antidanger Center you will not be able to access your desktop. Run Shell.reg and when prompted, allow it to merge the data.
3. Next step is MBAM. Install MBAM and remember that whilst in the installation process make sure both the Update Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware checked. Once installed on your computer, MBAM might ask you to reboot your system. If it does, then please do so.
4. Once your machine reboots, MBAM should automatically start and you will see MBAM‘s main screen. Once there, press on the Scanner tab and make sure the “Perform full scan” option is checked. Once checked, press the Scan button below.
5. After MBAM will finish scanning you will be presented with a message box and then a window where you will see all the infections on your system. Make sure all these infections are checked and then press the Remove Selected button. After MBAM finishes doing so, it might ask for a reboot. Please do so if it does.

Now your computer should be free of Windows Antidanger Center. However, judging by the fact that your system got infected in the first place you should consider using Secunia PSI in order to check if there are programs on your computer that are vulnerable to these kinds of malware attacks.
