Remove Smart Fortress 2012 (Uninstall Guide)
Smart Fortress 2012 is a rogue anti-spyware program from the Rogue.SecurityTool family. This program is categorized as a rogue
anti-spyware program because it pretends to be a legitimate
security program, but is actually a program that purposely display false
scan results, fake
security alerts, and hijacks your computer so that you are not able to
run your normal applications. Smart Fortress 2012 is installed onto a
computer
through other viruses, hacked websites that exploit vulnerable programs
on your computer, or through fake online anti-malware scanners that
prompt you to
install the program. When Smart Protection is installed it will create a
malware file in a random named folder in c:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\, in XP,
or C:\ProgramData, in Windows Vista and Windows 7. It will then be
configured to start automatically when you login to your computer.
