Everyone trusts Microsoft, don’t they? That’s why, some of the rogue security programs take advantage of this. For example, the rogue anti-spyware application Antivirus System PRO or a trojan related to this infection modifies Windows HOST file and redirects the user of the infected computer to itsecure.microsoft.com. The rogue program adds the following line in the HOST file:
209.44.111.62 itsecure.microsoft.com
First of all, the IP address 209.44.111.62 is not related with Microsoft web presence. Furthermore, the address itsecure.microsoft.com doesn’t even exist. You may see this web page only if your computer is infected with Antivirus System PRO. This web page is used to promote malicious software. If you are being constantly redirected to this fake website, tat means your computer is infected. Please use the removal guide below to remove Antivirus System PRO and any related malware for free.

It is perhaps the most widely-known worm in all history of worms. It struck the computer world in 2001, and infected a big number of computers all over the world.
I Love You Worm spreads through email as an attachment to the letters. But the text of the letters seems so nice and sweet that users opens an attachment without even thinking that there could be a virus. The text of e-mail may contain words like ‘I love you’ and everything that is similar to that. So, if you get such a letter with an attachment from unknown person, do not open the attachement!
This worm spreads very fast, because when it gets to the system, it immediately sends its copies to all the addresses from the Outlook Express address book. It also harms the system, by copying itself in the system folder and writing its information to the registry. It may also harm some of your files, for example *.mp3 files.
This worm has plenty of variants, so be careful with it. The filenames may be different from listed here.
