10 Best Computer Repairs in Charlotte, NC 28202

The release of Windows Server 2012 brought along an updated Hyper-V virtualization system. In this post we examine new opportunities in Hyper-V 3.0. It’s worth mentioning that a 3rd version contains a lot of improvements in functionality as compared with the previous version, and, main part is that the Hyper-V, Microsoft virtualization system, got to the new level of Enterprise products like VMware vSphere 5. Main management and monitoring tool in Hyper-V is a Hyper-V Manager (see picture). Beginning with version 3.0 many new functions became available via PowerShell. For example, launching virtual machine VM1 can be performed by running “Start -VM vm1”. Below you will find the description of key features of new Hyper-V version.

Scare-ware Fake Anti-Virus Alert

A client was browsing the internet recently when suddenly she got a pop up on her screen that said “Warning your computer may be infected, click here for a free security scan”. She clicked on the link and a scan began and this scan told her she had over one hundred infections on her computer and that to remove them she would need to pay $60 to remove them. She entered her credit card information and like magic the errors went away. Two weeks later she again received a message saying that her computer was yet again infected, whoever the software was not the same as the one that gave her the previous warnings. This time after completing the scan a $19 dollar payment was required to remove the errors. She had now spent $80 to remove threats to her computer. She was shocked when I informed her that the threats to her computer found by these software’s never existed. She was a victim of a scare-ware scam using “Fake-Antivirus Software”. Fake Anti-Virus software—software that displays false or misleading alerts about infections or vulnerabilities on the victim’s computer and offers to fix the supposed problems for a price—has become one of the most common methods that attackers use to swindle money from victims. These are programs that masquerade as legitimate security programs offering protection from malware, spyware, viruses and other threats, but actually use social engineering to obtain money from victims, and offer poor or nonexistent protection. Fake antivirus will take it upon itself to run a scan of computers belonging to unsuspecting users. Of course that the scan itself and the results offered are both fake. Fake AV doesn’t actually analyze machines, nor is it capable of detecting any malware, or to remove it. It’s all smoke and mirrors, a show put on to trick users into thinking that their computers is infected with malicious code. “Fake security software programs typically mimic the general look and feel of legitimate security software, claiming to detect a large number of nonexistent threats and urging the user to “activate” the software to remove them. Some copy the appearance of the Windows Security Center or unlawfully use trademarks and icons to misrepresent themselves. Fake security software spreads through familiar malware distribution mechanisms, like spam and exploits, and through customized tactics, like a fake Web based security scanner. After installation, some fake security software take other actions to evade detection or to frighten the user into paying. If you think your computer is infected with a Fake anti-virus software “do not enter your credit card information”, do not download some “quick fix software” from the internet to try to remove it. Some Fake anti-virus will block your access to the internet to prevent you from downloading removal software. I have heard from quite a few Computer Techs that they prefer not to deal with removing these threats since they are time consuming to remove and as such not “cost-effective”.At Computer Pro 4 Hirewe specialize in the removal of any type of threat to your computer and it is done at a flat rate cost of $50.
