How to remove security shield?

Despite its appearance, "Security Shield" is NOT an Antispyware/ Antivirus software. Security Shield is a malware that can do some damage to your computer. It can even steal your personal data such as your email password or credit card number (if you have ever entered your credit card data on your computer).

Removing this malware manually is risky and should be done by an experienced IT user only. I suggest you to use an Antispyware application such as "Spyware Doctor" or "Spyboy Search & Destroy". If you think you had ever entered sensitive data since your system got infected by this malware, I suggest you to change your email password and/or other passwords after you successfully remove this malware.

The scareware states that your PC is infected with spyware, adware and other viruses and that you should download and install My Security Shield in order to remove the infections. In reality, though, this is nothing more but a scam. And if you decide to install My Security Shield then it will make your computer almost unusable.
