Windows System Suite is Designed to Make You Miserable

The name of Windows System Suite is meant to lull you into a false sense of familiarity and security. The look of Windows System Suite is similar to real security programs. But the actions of Windows System Suite are meant to get you to waste your money on a useless program. Windows System Suite is a malicious program that sneaks onto your machine then attempts to convince you to buy a full version to save your computer from a worse fate. But it is a scam, and paying for a full version will not get this malware off your machine.
How Windows System Suite Works
Windows System Suite usually gets onto your computer through a trojan download. You are convinced that you need to download something, often a video codec, and install it in order to see some content that you are interested in. The content may or may not work once you’ve installed the trojan, but either way the scammers have got their hook into your machine. After sitting dormant for a little while so you won’t know exactly where you got the infection, the trojan will activate. In the case of Windows System Suite, it will pop up a message that says your system has been infected. This is the start of a long and annoying process.
If the program is allowed to run its course, it will create fake virus files and plant them on your computer. You will get alerts for these files, with the proof being that the files actually exist! Don’t fall for the trick, Windows System Suite put them there for you to find. The pop-up warnings will get more difficult to deal with, blocking other programs until you’ve acknowledged them… which will send you to their pay site to buy the mythical full version of the program. It will also hijack your Internet browser and send all your search requests to a particular search site. This program takes your control over your own computer away.
Malware That Protects Itself from You!
The last trick that Windows System Suite pulls on you is the most devious. It is also the reason many people give in and waste their money on this scam. To protect itself, this program will set up fake registry entries that attempt to prevent legitimate security software from running. You won’t be able to run your legitimate antivirus software, because Windows System Suite is preventing it to protect itself.
Getting Rid of the Problem
Whatever you do, do not purchase the full version of Windows System Suite. It does not help to get rid of the problems you are experiencing, and leaves your computer open to other on-line attacks. If you know how to edit your registry, you should be able to find and delete all the pieces of this spyware by yourself. Just be sure to get them all, because programs like this tend to hide trojan down loaders on your computer in case you erase the original infection.
Don’t despair help is out there, and this program is not the end of your computer.
