Antivirus Scan (aka Antivirus Scan Demo) is a modified variant of Antivirus Action which has been wandering via the Internet for the last several months messing up computer systems. Judging from our observations and overall analysis, Antivirus Scan may get very aggressive on you.

In other words, as soon as you start your PC you will have to watch the cartoon from the developers of Antivirus Scan resembling a virus check procedure.
