WiniShield is a bogus security tool made only for violating your machine and not protecting it's system. Although WiniShield might look like an actual security program and even imitate some it's processes rather persuasive, it is very important not to take WiniShield for a real security application.
WiniShield gets into the system with the help of bogus websites and trojans. It is able to generate numerous fake system scans and misleading warning messages. Both scans and warnings report non-existing threats, parasites and viruses that can only be removed by the payed WiniShield software. Please note that WiniShield is not a legitimate security program and is not able to find or remove any kind of actual security threats. It is strongly advised to get rid of WiniShield upon it's detection.
