Virusalarm-Scanvirus.net Description and Removal Instructions
Virusalarm-scanvirus.net (also known as Virusalarm-scanvirus.com) is a browser hijacker that promotes the rogue anti-spyware application, Virus Sweeper.

Once you arrive at this web page, a fake online scanner checks your system and, surprise surprise, dozens of irritating pop-up ads and security alert messages begin bombarding your screen, notifying you of the various viruses infecting your PC. Of course, these parasites are all nonexistent, and are nothing more than a tactic used to scare you into purchasing Virus Sweeper in order to combat this attack.
