Yet another nasty rogue anti-spyware program is amongst us, this time named “Ultra Antivirus 2009″. I managed to get this baby loaded on my test machine and boy did I let her rip!

Ultra Antivirus 2009 pretends to be a “Anti-Spyware” program, often tricking users into thinking its a legitimate program. The main goal of Ultra Antivirus 2009 is to trick users into purchasing the software, often by providing fake scan results and informing the user that the software detected threats on the computer.

But alas that is not true, and when reality kicks in; your computer is in fact fine. Ultra Antivirus 2009’s main goal is to get you to Purchase Their Product!

For gods sake DON’T DO IT!
