SoftStronghold

SoftStronghold is a rogue security application that claims to be able to remove any infections on any computer. However, this is a complete lie and the program should not be trusted at all. It uses Trojan horses to infect computers, as well as malicious websites to exploit a computer’s security holes. Then, once it has secretly loaded itself, it begins a horrible scam.

From pop-ups to fake security alerts to fake system scans, SoftStronghold will do anything to make a sale. It tells the user that their computer is infected but only points to benign files as infections. It then tells the user that they need to buy its full version in order to have the threats removed. This of course, is just part of its scam, since the full version is completely powerless.

If this rogue has infected your computer somehow, then you need to have it removed immediately. If you wish to remove it manually, start by killing the following processes:

SoftStronghold.exe
uninstall.exe
akx4.tmp.exe
10246h9zktool4d5.exe
205z0sp95ad.exe
Type : Rogue Security Application

Relative file contents : SoftStronghold.lnk, 1 SoftStronghold.lnk, 2 Homepage.lnk, 3 Uninstall.lnk, SoftStronghold.exe, uninstall.exe, akx4.tmp.exe, 10246h9zktool4d5.exe, 1045ztroj92a.ocx, 10520hac5too979z.bin, 20151worm9z4.ocx, 205z0sp95ad.exe, 2069sz5mbot179.dll

Then, delete these registry entries:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SoftStronghold
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SoftStronghold
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SoftStronghold
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run “akx4.tmp.exe”
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run “SoftStronghold”

Unregister the following DLL:

Delete these files:

3 Uninstall.lnk
SoftStronghold.exe
uninstall.exe
akx4.tmp.exe
10246h9zktool4d5.exe

10520hac5too979z.bin
20151worm9z4.ocx
205z0sp95ad.exe
2069sz5mbot179.dll

Finally, delete these directories:

%Documents and Settings%\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\SoftStronghold
%Program Files%\SoftStronghold Software\SoftStronghold
%Program Files%\SoftStronghold Software\
