Antivirus Studio 2010 is a fake antivirus program that infects your computer and basically harasses you into buying the full version of the program. This type of infection is known as ransomware because the program is pretty much asking for ransom money in order for it to stop its harassment. Needless to say, if you do fall for the trick and end up buying Antivirus Studio 2010, that will not be the end of the story. Not only will your computer remain infected, the credit card which you used to make the purchase will also become compromised. So no matter what you do, do not buy this program. If you have been duped into buying, call your bank immediately and notify them of the scam.
Antivirus Studio 2010 removal is not straight forward. For one, it can disable any existing antivirus program as well as block access to updates and websites. The program also replaces your Task Manager with a fake one that highlights in red color, process names to say that those processes are infected. Among other tactics that this fake program uses to persuade you into buying it is to make your computer increasingly sluggish. The screen can start flickering and you may also be subjected to a recurring voice message saying 'new virus found'.
Additionally, Antivirus Studio 2010 pretends to scan your computer and detect various severe and/or critical infections. Do not fall for this trick.
To remove Antivirus Studio 2010, hit Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up your Task Manager. Look for any process named 'securitycenter.exe' or 'securityhelper.exe'. Once you have located such process, click on it to highlight it then click on the 'End Process' button. Repeat this until you have shut down any of the processes listed above. You should now be able to update your existing antivirus program and run a full scan.
