XP-Shield

XP-Shield

XP-Shield is bogus/rogue antispyware software recently released by the scammers.

Site Name: XP-Shield.com
IP Address: 88.214.200.140

XP-Shield uses the same standard homepage which is also used by many other scam/rogue/crapware applications.



The site XPshield.com also shares the same IP address and currently just redirects to XP-Shield.com site.

The application just does a fake scan on the system and ask user to purchase the full version to remove the fake threats detected on the system. None of the scanners on Virustotal Flags this file as malicious.

Stay away from this site.
