Security Shield Virus – How To Remove The Security Shield Rogue Anti Spyware From Your PC

Security Shield is an bothersome rogue anti malware program that is being spread over the world-wide-web because of trojans, emails and also drive by downloads. This application is bogus and untrustworthy, you should not use any of your money to purchase this fake antispyware program.

If you have been deceived into purchasing a licence of the Security Shield Virus then I strongly suggest you get in touch with your credit card company and request a chargeback on the transaction. Be sure to remove this program and any trace of it because this program will not protect your PC in any way shape or form and will only make matters worse by monitoring your every detail online through the use of keyloggers.

Security Shield Manual Virus Removal

Because the application may lock your desktop or stop you from opening certain files or programs you may have to manually delete or stop the process manually.

• Press CTRL + ALT + DELETE to open the Task Manager
• Click on the processes tab and end process (random).exe
• If that does not work press the Start button on the window task bar
• Click Computer
• Click on your main drive (normally the C drive)
• Then click the folder named USERS
• Then click on the name of the current user
• Then click on the folder named desktop
• Then look for an icon called Security Shield Icon
• Right Click on the Security Shield Icon
• Select properties
• Copy the file location which is similar to C:\ProgramData\(random).exe\(random).exe

When you copy the folder location leave out the directory that contains the exe file. So if the exact location of the Security Shield Virus was the same as above you would only need to copy C:\ProgramData\(random).exe\ (keep note of this on a piece of paper)

• Then navigate to the above folder
• Right click and rename the file within that folder to any name that you choose
• Next reboot/turn off and restart the computer
• You should notice that your desktop is now functional
• You should also see the Security Shield icon on your desktop
• Navigate to the location of the Security Shield folder that you wrote down
• You will see the file that you renamed earlier
• Right Click and delete that file
• Also delete the folder that contained that file (this would be the location that you wrote down)
• Delete the icon from your desktop

By using the methods above your PC should be free from the Security Shield Virus. I would advise you to install and run a reputable antispyware/antivirus program like STOPzilla. I also recommend downloading PC Health Advisor to help with the overall health of your PC.
