i oddly had one of these viruses on my old mini laptop as a kid. The weirdest part was that it hijacked the background and said something like "if you want to protect your family, your friends, etc. buy the license" or some shit like that with a bunch of ones and zeros on a red or blue background. i just shrugged it off and continued my life like normal and took my dog for a walk on a warm winter day. about a month later i came back to the laptop and all the files were magically gone from the virus. it deleted itself or some shit.
I remember I was infected with this in 2010/2011, or maybe a very simillar variant of this rouge with just a different year in the name. The funniest thing is that that computer was running XP with Norton Internet Security from that period. And Norton "stopped a network attack" which apparently was somehow the injection of this rogue, but it happened again after like a minute and it got past. Of course it was all my fault after all, because I was 10 and I was playing flash games. Or at least that's what my father thought. Ah, Symantec. If they made condoms, they would make both partners pregnant. And I regret I wasn't that much into computers back then. I'd love to grab a sample, if it's that rare.
We had this virus in the computer lab at middle school. Except there wasn't a "Dismiss" option for when it popped up its "Threat detected" window. You couldn't run anything: no Explorer (except for the Desktop process), no CMD, no RegEdit, no Task Manager... Anyways, the IT admin asked me to help him clean the virus form the lab machines; he gave me a printout of instructions to do it. Turns out, someone disassembled the virus, and there was a hidden "license key" that you needed to type in the "Activation" tab and you could then run programs. From then on, it was: launch RegEdit, remove ".exe" association, remove autostart, then remove the malware's EXE. As far as I remember, it even dropped itself into %AppData% or smth. I wanted to grab a copy of that virus to extract the resources from it (it had a really cool window, you see), but I don't think I did (or at least I don't think I have it anymore). I might have the printout in the bottom of some binder though.
I'll never forget when my dad succeeded to download this on his laptop, and while I was working on the removal he borrowed my PC. Sure as hell it got the same "antivirus" within 24 hours

So i had to come back home early than usual because if not he could might literally tried to buy the thing, because when i came home there it was the laptop with this kind of "thing" sitting in the desktop throwing "potential risks" like every 4 minutes, something was getting infected, compromised or just plain broken because of some unknown reason that even the software that was specificly meant to fix the issue didnt knew what it was, of course it didnt knew until you gave him some bucks that is, if you payed then that's when the program could let you know what was the issue. So i did some research and the real problem was the program itself, didnt knew about the definition of Rogue Programs before but that day i had a crash course, if i just let the program sit in the system long enough it could had gotten worse and worse, like after a couple of hours it could had started doing fake BSOD's then blocking or stoping servicies altogether, after that it could literally start doing real BSOD's because it could start corrupting system functions because it wasnt essencially well programmed to begin with, and then the system could be a total mess and you only way of "fixing it" could be lending money to the "developers" Then i just searched how to remove it, and with some help of malwarebytes, some registry editing and some manual deleting and a restart the thing was totally obliterated, if it wasnt for me searching the program on google and then reading about it i could just had done massive damage to the system by just letting the program in the system long enough.

Oh god. I remember this. Pretty sure this was what my computer was infected with once back in 2010. I remember there being a website that had styles awfully similar to Windows Explorer, expect it had a "scanner" included.. not sure if that was for this antivirus. It somehow kept popping up... and unfortunately, I downloaded it. It scared the heck out of me. Parents had to take the computer to a guy that knew how to fix it (I wish I did at the time but I was only about 9) and were not happy lol.
