NavaShieldとは 意味・読み方・使い方

NavaShield was a rogue security application which attempted to scare users into purchasing a license. NavaShield can be noted for its aggressive tactics compared to similar scams, which gives the term "scareware" a whole new meaning. Originally when it was installed it would claim the user's computer was "protected", however, once the trial period ended NavaShield would wreak havoc. NavaShield would simulate an actual malware infection rather than simply blocking programs stating they cannot run due to infection, or displaying fake alerts. Its payload is characterized by playing obnoxious laughing and threats through the speaker, opening pornographic websites, sending emails to fake e-mail addresses (usually with names such as "beb@sexsex"), and opening random explorer windows. Its alternative payload is running a fake format of your disk drive (and preventing application execution in the process), at the same time rapidly playing Internet Explorer's "Popup Blocked" sound ad infinitum.
