WinFixer was a family of scareware rogue security programs developed by which claimed to repair computer system problems on Microsoft Windows computers if a user purchased the full version of the software. The software was mainly installed without the user's consent. McAfee claimed that "the primary function of the free version appears to be to alarm the user into paying for registration, at least partially based on false or erroneous detections." The program prompted the user to purchase a paid copy of the program.

  • Winfixer est une famille de faux utilitaires qui sont présentés sur le site de l'éditeur comme des logiciels de protection du système. L'éditeur prétend que ces logiciels réparent les fichiers corrompus, nettoient la base de registre, réparent les erreurs du disque dur, etc. En réalité, ce sont des logiciels malveillants. (fr)
  • WinFixer(ウィンフィクサー)とは、インターネット上で蔓延しているマルウェアの一種で、あたかもコンピュータ内の問題点を修正するかのごとく、合法を装って偽の警告を行う不審なプログラムのこと。WinAntiVirusもしくは、ErrorSafeとも呼ばれる。 また、同種のマルウェアにSystemDoctorやDriveCleaner、MySearchなどがあり、最近ではKyoiKanshi(脅威監視)やHadodoraiBugado(ハードドライブガード)という新種まで出ている。 (ja)
  • Winfixer även WinFixer, WinAntiVirus, Errorsafe, SystemDoctor, DriveCleaner, ErrorProtector, WinAntiSpyware, SysProtect, WinSoftware, ECsecure och PrivacyProtector är bluff-antivirusvaror som sägs vara till nytta men det visar sig bara vara bluff. Det hela börjar med att det kommer upp ett poppuppfönster där det står att man har problem med sin dator och att datorn är slöare än vanligt, och man uppmanas att ladda ned ett av nämnda program. Om man laddar hem programmet, så skickar detta in nya virus hela tiden och det är svårt att ta bort virusen(et). Om man avinstallerar programmet så installeras det igen (installeras i gömda filer i datorn) och då krävs det avgifter och pengar från en. (sv)
  • ErrorSafe是一個透過互聯網廣告而安裝在用戶電腦的間諜軟件。由於它在網上已臭名昭著,所以經常以不同的名稱發行,例如:WinFixer或WinAntiVirus 。從2005年開始,這產品亦積極國際化,透過低成本的翻譯而製作其他語言的版本,以提高其市場「佔有率」。這軟件現時在網上的「強逼安裝」廣告,已被著名掃毒軟件Kaspersky Anti-Virus界別為木馬程式。 (zh)
