Remove Windows Debug Center (Uninstall Guide)
Windows Debug Center is a rogue anti-spyware program
from the Rogue.FakeVimes family. This program is classified as a rogue
as it displays false information in order to trick you into purchasing
the program. This particular variant is spread via two methods. The
first method is the use of hacked web sites that exploit visitor's
vulnerable programs in order to install the rogue without their
permission. The second method uses web sites that display fake online
anti-malware scanners that pretend to scan your computer, state that it
is infected, and then prompt you to download and install Windows Debug
Center in order to clean it.
Once the rogue is installed on your computer it will be configured to
start automatically when Windows starts. Once started it will perform a
fake scan and then state that there are numerous infections present. If
you attempt to use the program to remove these infections, though, it
will state that you first need to purchase it before it can do so. This
is a scam as the scan results are all fake, and in many cases, the
infected files do not even exist on your computer. Therefore, please
ignore the scan results and do not purchase the program.
