Antivirus7, or Antivirus 7, is rogue anti-spyware program from the same family as the Antivir rogue. This program is promoted through the use of web sites that pretend to be online anti-malware scanners. You will typically get to these pages through web pop-ups that state that your computer is infected and that you should run an online scan. When you click on this pop-up you will automatically be brought to a page showing an advertisement that pretends to be an online anti-malware scanner. When this fake scanner finishes it will state that you are infected and that you should download and install Antivirus7 to protect your computer.
