Among all rogue antivirus applications Keep Cop is one of the most dangerous. Promoting by Trojans, Keep Cop is an extremely powerful weapon for hackers to incarnate in reality their nasty plans. The very first thing Keep Cop is going to do is to run system scan and after that it will state that your machine is infected with numerous viruses, worms, adwares and different others malicious files. Do not ever trust Keep Cop and its scans results, because it is nothing more but simple scam. Very probably you do not even have all the threats Keep Cop tries to make you believe in. Keep Cop always creates tons of files during installation and after every scan presents them as infections. That is why you must ignore Keep Cop’s notifications about license importance and do not be afraid when you cannot use Keep Cop to remove the threats. Without doubts, you do not even have to spend your money on that worthless license. Another scary thing Keep Cop can make is to deny an access to security related website and that is how this rogue antispyware application keeps itself from being infected. What is more, Keep Cop never stops only on fake system scans. Another part of strategy it uses is sending annoying pop-ups and bogus alerts to the user and spreading them all over your working windows every single time you log on into Windows. All these notifications will state about license importance or informs you about the extremely security danger. Unfortunately all these pop-ups are just another try to influence you to spend your money without any purpose. That is why we advise you to get rid of Keep Cop and never trust such badwares in the future.
