Antivirus 2008 is a corrupt anti-virus tool that harasses users with its scare tactics in order to earn a $50. Antivirus 2008 (also known as Antivirus2008) is distributed through malicious websites that sell other fake anti spyware tools as well. Once inside and active, Antivirus 2008 will bombard the user with an endless flood of popups and fake system notifications, supposedly informing him of an infection, which is most likely non-existent. These threats are supposed to lead the user into a position where he has the necessity to buy an anti-spyware program. Of course, Antivirus 2008 is up and ready for the task. The task of ripping you off, that is. Do not, ever, download or buy Antivirus 2008. To ensure your security and avoid accidental infection, you should block antivirus2008.com using your HOSTS file.
