Security Shield is a member of the Security Tool family, you can apply theese actions to Security Tool as well.

^ The message box above was from the dropper file.

Okay to make this removal process a bit more easy, enter the following serial number into the activation box: 64C665BE-4DE7-423B-A6B6-BC0172B25DF2 Credits to Xylitol for the serial!
Now download malwarebytes anti-malware from here.

Run a quick scan and wait for MBAM to detect it. When it's done reboot and you should be done.

(Optional)
Download ccleaner from here.
And do a scan with eset online scanner from here.

I would rather run Rkill instead of interacting with the rogue (entering that serial number). And then perform a full scan with Malwarebytes Antimalware.

Seems like bogdan dosen;t like to negociate with malware :P .....

A serial key is a solution to so that when it activated the rogue itself will look friendly.
 
Yes also when the rogue activated there will be no more popups and will remove the threats that was detected, it made the program a legit once its activated.
