[QUOTE="bayasdev, post: 826543, member: 41799"] This shady AV has been spreading the last months as a PUP and some users complain on Reddit that it becames persistent once installed so it doesn't matters how many times you uninstall it just cames back after a reboot; They also claim to be a portuguese/brazilian AV company on a [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/AskTechnology/comments/an6fvl/is_segurazo_client_antivirus_safe/eon5ozh?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x']Reddit post[/URL]. After unpacking the setup file that I downloaded from their [URL='https://www.segurazo.com/']website[/URL] it looks like they're using Reason Core (formerly HerdProtect) engine. ByteFence a similar pseudo-AV also uses Reason Core engine so maybe they're behind those nagware programs and distributing them through questionable practices like bundled software.
