Windows Secure Workstation

Windows Secure Workstation

Welcome again to another weekly installment of our infection removal guide. If you’ve made your way to this page, you’ve probably
been infected with Windows Secure Workstation. Infections of this type, while somewhat less than dangerous, do their their work through
scare tactics. Essentially, they make it very difficult to use your computer, and may also redirect your browser’s search, making simple
tasks like finding this guide unnecessarily difficult. This client is a clone of Anti-Spyware, XP Home Security 2012, XP Anti-Virus 2012
and XP Security 2012 as well as Win 7 Anti-Spyware, Win 7 Home Security 2012

How Did I get infected with Windows SecureWorkstation?

Often, infections like this come from infected webpages, oftentimes pages that you visit frequently. Malicious code is
inserted into the website which then automatically installs the infection onto your computer. Frequently, this won’t even require
action on your part, the infection’s software is able to bypass your antivirus and insert itself silently into your Windows installation.
If this is the case, you should consider upgrading to a better antivirus.

How Much Damage is Windows Secure Workstation Doing?

With most infections in this particular family, the biggest problem they cause is disassociation of executable files in the
registry. That’s why you’re getting those scary looking pop-ups asking what you would like to use to run any program. This just means
that the registry information that tells Windows how to launch executables has been damaged. Luckily, we’ve posted a quick fix below
in this very guide!
