How To: Remove System Tool Malware (System Tool Antivirus) On Windows PCs

System Tool.  It sounds like something your Windows computer might need, but it's the exact opposite.

System Tool is a computer virus masquerading as a free antivirus program.  But don't be fooled, System Tool Antivirus might as well be called System Tool Virus or even System Tool Malware or System Tool Spyware, because it's distributed with the help of trojans.  When you click on this free software, it will automatically download and install System Tool "Virus" onto your computer without your consent or knowledge, configuring itself to run whenever you start up your Windows PC.

If you've found yourself victim to this antivirus virus, then rest assured, with a little work you can save your computer from damage.  But you have to hurry fast and completely remove System Tool from your computer!

EzineMark has a really helpful tutorial on getting rid of the System Tool Virus completely.

When System Tool Antivirus is started, it will imitate a system scan and detect a lot of various infections that will not be fixed unless you first purchase the program.

Important to know, all of these reported infections are fake and don't actually exist on your computer! So you can safely ignore the scan results.
