SystemVeteran - How to remove

SystemVeteran is a new rogue in the so-called WiniSoft family, which has up until now been responsible for countless rogues, most recently BlockProtector and BlockWatcher. This parasite is no different than any other rogue: it uses downloader trojans and drive-by downloads to infect the system, and relies on misleading advertising to trick users into purchasing it’s “licensed version”, which is a complete fake.

Once inside, SystemVeteran does a number of things to prevent it’s removal: it blocks legitimate security software, disables various system applications, such as System Restore, Safe Mode, Task Manager, and Registry Editor, and hijacks the browser, thus making it very difficult to download tools needed to dispose of SystemVeteran.

After doing that, SystemVeteran is free to deceive users. It does this by displaying popups, which claim the system is infected, and performing fake scans, which mark harmless files as threats. The point of all these misleading steps is to persuade the user to purchase the “licensed” version of SystemVeteran, which is a non-existent thing altogether.

This program is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it, and remove SystemVeteran immediatelly upon detection.
