Win32.Vitro

Win32.Vitro Description
Win32.Vitro is a trojan that may be found in questionable websites that provide free online movies. Once you try to watch free online movies, Win32.Vitro will try to trick you into downloading a fake video codec in order to watch the movie you want. If you're tricked into downloading the fake video codec, you'll be infected with the Win32.Vitro trojan. Once infected with Win32.Vitro, it will open a conduit in your computer system through which additional spyware may be installed. Due to Win32.Vitro's malicious activities, rogue anti-spyware programs such as Antivirus 2008, Antivirus 360 and System Protector, may leap into the computer system. These rogues may issue fake popups and system alert messages that interfere with your workflow.
