In a word, no. eXPress Antivirus is malware, although this rogue security program claims to remove just that. The number one goal of this application is to con the user into purchasing the product to remove parasites from their PC, which it cannot do. eXPress Antivirus uses aggressive and misleading advertising to trick you into believing that your PC is infected, so that you will buy the product.
This program displays constant security alerts and warnings, informing you that infections exist. They then invite you to download their free scan in order to find these parasites so that they can be removed. What they do not tell you is that once you run the scan, you must pay for the fully licensed version of the product in order to get these infections removed. eXPress Antivirus cannot scan your computer. Its claims to detect and remove parasites are completely false.
How might eXPress Antivirus install on your PC?
Sometimes simply downloading the free scan will actually place this parasite on your PC. If you were smart and did not download the scan but got eXPress Antivirus anyway, it could have happened a number of ways. This often occurs when you download other files, visit strange websites or share networks with others. Spam e-mails may be the culprit as well.
What does malware do?
Malware and spyware frequently collect information about what you do online, such as the websites you visit or searches you perform. It may also gain access to private information like passwords, credit card numbers and other business data. Spyware runs constantly in the background, and starts up every time you log on to Windows. Your computer may become slow, because these parasites use a good amount of your system resources. It may also place more malware on your PC, which will make things worse.
Is there an easy way to remove eXPress Antivirus?
Removing it automatically with a reputable antispyware tool is the best way to get rid of eXPress Antivirus. You can do it manually, but you must know exactly how it is done. When not done right, manual removal may damage your PC. This requires locating all related files and values, which is hard for most people because these files can hide from you.
