Personal Anti Malware is not a real security tool. The program is a fraud and a malware. Although the name of the application - Personal Anti Malware suggests that it's an anti-malware software, what the program actually does to your computer is quite the opposite to what it should do. It slows down your system performance by taking up way too much of its resources. Personal Anti Malware also loads your computer with numerous scans and pop-up warnings which are all fake and which results should not be trusted.

Personal Anti Malware is a parasite distributed online via fraudulent websites which promote it as a real antivirus. It may be downloaded voluntarily or with the help of trojans. Either way, once Personal Anti Malware infects your system it starts performing malicious actions which may cause serious problems. If you have Personal Anti Malware on your computer, it is best that you remove it immediately.
