VirusBurster – also known as VirusBurst – is rogue anti-spyware software that may install itself onto your PC without your knowledge. VirusBurster may not really find and remove spyware parasites from your computer, but may issue fake alerts to try to scare you into buying the “full version” of VirusBurster.
