Typical Browser Hijacker for the Personal Antivirus rogue
Personal Antivirus is a phony antivirus program, or a rogue anti-spyware application. This fake spyware remover is a parasite that is designed to scam people out of their money using scare tactics. Personal Antivirus should not be trusted, do not buy this corrupt software
Like most rogue antispyware and rogue antivirus software, Personal Antivirus uses Trojans to infect PC after PC.

Personal Antivirus is made by the same jerks who make other nasty rogue security software including; Antivirus 2009
Antivirus 2009 uses Trojans to spread from computer to computer. These Trojans are usually found on porn and warez websites disguised as video codec. Once Antivirus 2009 infects a computer it floods the user with popup and fake system notifications, all in an attempt to frighten the user into thinking their computer is infected with spyware and they need to buy Antivirus 2009 to clean their machines. While the system at hand may indeed be infected, Antivirus 2009 will inform the user of this regardless of whether it's true or not
Symptoms of an Antivirus 2009 infection may include redirecting web browsers to websites that sell the malware, PC slowness, annoying pop-ups that are constant, non-stop security warnings and the users desktop may become hijacked.

Antivirus 360 will perform a system scan and display a report with a list of legitimate or nonexistent files as infections that cannot be removed unless the user purchases the program. What is so dangerous about these scan results is that the files that Antivirus 360 states are infections are actually legitimate Microsoft files, that if deleted, will cause Windows to become unusable. Antivirus 360 will also display a constant barrage of false security alerts stating that the computer has a variety of security risks. These risks range from files being modified to private data being sent to a remote host.
