If you attempt to clean these fake infections, though, the program will state that you must first purchase a license before it will allow you to do so. Once running it will pretend to scan your computer and then state that there are numerous files on your computer that are infected. Once the program is installed it will be configured to start up automatically when you login to your Mac. Once the program has finished downloading, the installer will start and prompt you to install the program.
When these fake scans are finished, it will state that your computer is infected and then automatically download the Mac Protector program onto your computer. This infection is spread through the use of advertisements on web sites that pretend to be fake online scanners.
Mac Protector is a fake rogue anti-spyware program
