Malware of PrivacyControl as a way to get permanent privacy problems

PrivacyControl or Privacy Control is another program that promises to optimize Windows performance, but does not keep the word and does nothing except reminding that updates available. The updates are also payable, and a user that has already paid for registration is supposed to be extremely happy to pay again, after this program has not optimized computer characteristics a bit. Quite in contrary, those who have installed PrivacyControl have claimed they would remove PrivacyControl no matter they accidentally had trusted it before. The routings of this problem stick out the trialware trickery. Saying “remove Privacy Control” we usually have in mind to remove PrivacyControl trialware. This trialware is usually installed by and after trojan and has the devices to disorder Windows hardly. That, in combination with alerts and program window screening, is very likely to be a good reason for a user to pay for this malware registration. Of course, this is a pre-planned trickery of hackers and, if you have been infected with PrivacyControl trial or have purchased its full version, remove PrivacyControl immediately and forget of this awful invention.
