What is Windows Functionality Checker?
Windows Functionality Checker is a fraudulent computer security program that will destroy your system if you allow it to stay. This rogue antispyware application is very good at pretending to be an antivirus program, because it looks very much like a popular computer safeguard tool. That is so, because Windows Functionality Checker copies the design and appearance of a legitimate program, and thus a lot of innocent users fall for this trap believing that Windows Functionality Checker is the real thing.
Unfortunately, Windows Functionality Checker can do nothing what a real antivirus program is supposed to do. It cannot even protect you from the viruses it “detects” in your system. To make matters clear – the parasites that Windows Functionality Checker reports about do not exist in your computer. The rogue makes them up in order to make you believe that you are terribly infected and the only way out of this situation involves buying the full version of the program.
Do not do it by any means. Were you to pay for the full version of Windows Functionality Checker, you would expose your credit card information to cyber criminals and then they would be able to illegally access your bank account any time they wanted to. As a result, you would lose your hard-earned money and would still have to deal with an infected computer at hand. Therefore, remove Windows Functionality Checker from your system as soon as possible and protect your computer from any similar threats without further ado.
UPDATE
In addition Windows Functionality Checker belongs to the same nest of dangerous rogue applications as Home Safety Essentials, Anti-Malware Lab, Windows Protection Master and other rogue antispyware applications that fits seamlessly into the Windows XP interface. It looks as if the program is a complementary part of the system, so a lot of users think it is a real deal.
Unfortunately, once Windows Functionality Checker is installed, it spams you with fake security notifications that say the following:
Error
Keylogger activity detected. System information security is at risk.
It is recommended to activate protection and run a full system scan.Error
Software without a digital signature detected.
Your system files are at risk. We strongly advise you to activate your protection.Error
Potential malware detected.
It is recommended to activate protection and perform a thorough system scan to remove the malware.Warning! Virus Detected
Threat detected: FTP Server
Infected file: C:\Windows\System32\dllcache\wmploc.dll
These annoying messages are designed to scare you into believing that your computer is infected, but you should ignore them point blank and concentrate on removing Windows Functionality Checker for good.
If you allow Windows Functionality Checker to stay in your system it will block your executables, making it impossible to run certain programs. It can also stop you from opening Windows Task Manager and the Registry in hopes of remaining in your system for a longer period of time. Thus it is obvious that you must erase Windows Functionality Checker from your computer. The sooner the better. If you cannot do it on your own, invest in an antimalware program that will delete Windows Functionality Checker automatically.
