Files Secure is a fake spyware removal program that is primarily designed to lure Internet users out of their money. Files Secure is advertised and pushed by Trojan-Downloader.Adload.pd , which creeps onto your machine bundled with fake video codecs that users usually download from questionable web pages. Once it is installed, Trojan-Downloader.Adload.pd will hijack web search engines, including Google and display false error warnings in your search results.

Furthermore, Trojan-Downloader.Adload.pd will generate irritating fake popup warning messages stating that your PC has been infected with various Trojans, such as Trojan.Win32.Gorshok.a , Trojan.Win32.LinkReplacer , Trojan.Win32.Agent.akk , Trojan.Win32.Obfuscated.gx and others.

Notice that these Trojan names are the fake ones and non-existent. The possible error message may look like this one:

Critical System Error!
Your browser was hijacked by Trojan.Win32.Gorshok.a
You need to clean your system immediately, in other case it can be crashed soon!
Click OK to download the high-tech antispyware protection software! (Recommended)

If you click on this FAKE message, your browser will be directed to the webpage where the rogue Files Secure application is promoted attempting to trick you into purchasing its full commercial version. In addition, Files Secure is a clone of notorious IEDefender. We recommend the immediate removal of Files Secure because this program will not protect you against Spyware, but might actually expose you to more security threats.
