Securebit Technologies - How to remove

Securebit Technologies is a fake antivirus program that is distributed worldwide and can infect any computer. The program gets access to computers using social engineering tactics. As soon as you find out about existence of this badware on your system, you have to take care of it. It is a malicious program that you must remove without any doubt.

Just as most of rogue antivirus programs, Securebit Technologies uses a fake scanner and pretends to look for infections on your computer. Then it tries to prove you that your system is infected and you need some assistance for this. The purpose of this is to make you pay for a so called full version of Securebit Technologies. It promises to get rid of all malicious threats but in fact it only seeks to steal your money. The program can also try ripping your off by locking your computer screen and asking for a certain fee in order to get your computer unlocked.

What is more, Securebit Technologies displays a fake pop up that appears just above the task bar warning about lots of infections found and recommending to run a full system scan to clean your PC. Here’s how the message looks like:

Free Antivirus
Infected files have been detected on your PC.
359 Infected files found.
It is recommended to run a full system scan and clean your PC.
For Support Call 1-800-862-2015 (Toll Free US/Canada)

Neither this message, nor the scan results of Securebit Technologies warn about real infections. They are used only to scare you and make you think your computer is at risk. As already mentioned, what makes this rogue different from other rogue programs is that it also uses computer lock screen. The infected computer system is usually locked few minute after running system scan. Locking screen prevents access to any of your programs and makes your system completely useless. The message that appears on the screen again warns about numerous threats detected. If you call the number provided in the pop-up or computer lock screen for assistance, you will be offered to install their software that costs $49.99. Unfortunately, if you pay you will lose this money.

You have to remove Securebit Technologies from your system, if you noticed in on your computer. You have to kill processes of Securebit Technologies using Task Manager. Then we recommend scanning your system with a reputable antispyware program, like Spyhunter and remove all infectious files.
