What is Internet Security 2014?
Internet Security 2014 is a malware virus. It’s important to mention that many legitimate antivirus clients do have the term Internet Security in the name along with the year the product was released. At the time of this writing we are still in mid 2013 and many AV clients have not released the 2014 versions of their software. However they will shortly.
Internet Security 2014 will show fake scan results and dozens of warning messages. Each will tell the user how infected their computer is and that they are being hacked, files stolen, accounts accessed. Things along that line. You will constantly be asked to purchase the product to remove the viruses. The Internet Security 2014 is the real virus and it’s the program holding backup your computer.
This is a scam known as rogue security software and it’s been going around for years on end. The scam works by tricking people into paying for the fake software.

Next time it starts up the virus file will not be running and you can delete the file you just re-named.
