XP Guardian 2010 is not the program to use for one's system protection. Although it might look and act like a legitimate security application, XP Guardian 2010 should not be confused for one. It is a bogus program which tries to trick the user into purchasing the XP Guardian 2010 software which it presents to be a real system protection software. Unfortunately, XP Guardian 2010 is only an imitation of a security program and is not able to provide any actual computer security services.

XP Guardian 2010 is distributed online and is usually difficult to avoid if one does not employ a reputable security software and tends to browse through various questionable websites which either contain adult videos or require downloading video codecs to view them. XP Guardian 2010 comes along with the download and installs itself automatically. XP Guardian 2010 should not be taken for a real thing and by no means should it be purchased. Remove XP Guardian 2010 upon detection.
