While the rogue program is running, it will flag harmless files as malware infections. In fact, My Security Shield drops several files on the system and later detects those files Trojans, worms or other malicious software. This misleading application adds itself to the list of programs that start automatically when Windows OS starts. It will hijack Internet Explorer and other web browsers. It may display search results from findgala.com instead of Google. And of course, it may block safe security related websites and legitimate anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. Last, but not least, you wouldn't imagine a rogue program without fake security alerts and pop-ups from Windows taskbar. My Security Shield has it all. The fake program may display any of the following warning messages:
Warning! Virus detected
Threat Detected: Trojan-PSW.VBS.Half
Description: This is a VBScript-virus. It steals user's passwords.
The home page of My Security Shield is www5.my-security-shield.com. Please do not visit this site.
My Security Shield is from the same family as Security Master AV and My Security Engine scareware.
