Removal Instructions for AdDestroyer
AdDestroyer is a rogue security application that claims to be able to remove adware. However, once this rogue has secretly infected a computer, it will actually generate a whole slew of pop-up ads. It will even hijack your browser and alter search results to include its own ads. AdDestroyer does this so that it can start to generate security alerts that promote its useless product. It will also attempt to run system scans that will ultimately yield misleading results.
It should go without saying that you should avoid this program and never buy it. Instead, you should remove it from your computer immediately.
You can remove it manually by killing the following process:
addestroyer.exe
