DealsFactor is an application which can be installed onto the computer with a variety of different name variations. Unfortunately, this is done to prevent the removal of the suspicious application. As you must know already, legitimate applications do not hide from the removal, and so this activity should not be disregarded. Of course, we recommend that you delete DealsFactor not because it can change its own name but because it is intrusive and unreliable. Our researchers at Anti-Spyware-101.com identify the application as an advertisement-supported program, and this reveals that it produces online adverts. It may be important to disable these to ensure that your virtual security is not jeopardized. Read more »

Windows Security Virus is rogue security software that will block various websites (e.g. start.qip.ru, yandex.com, google.com, etc.) and present you with a fake warning claiming that your system is heavily infected with malicious software and you will not be able to browse the web unless you eliminate them from your computer.

The researchers of anti-spyware-101.com have implemented a research and found out that this infection just seeks to extort money from innocent computer uses. Thus, it is not surprising that it uses a fake antivirus/system scanner. Do you want to browse the web freely again? If so, you will have to remove Windows Security Virus from the system. Read more »

Rightdeals is just one more adware application that should be removed without hesitation if found present on your PC. Adware programs are infamous for being worthless and potentially dangerous.
