Total Security 4.52 description
Total Security 4.52 is a malicious program made to look like a legitimate security tool. It's almost the exact copy of the other Total Security applications Total Security and Total Security 2009. All of these programs are dangerous computer parasites and should not be treated as security tools.
Total Security 4.52 installs itself with the help of trojans without the user's permission and even their awareness. It then performs false system scans reporting various threats to be found. Do not trust Total Security 4.52! All the reports and messages generated by this program are false and made up only to make the user purchase its payed software which is nothing but another parasite. It is very important to remove Total Security 4.52 from the system as soon as possible as it weakens the computer's security system therefore allowing other malware to infect the computer. Total Security 4.52 may also damage the system and make it impossible to use.
