Smart Fortress 2012 is a variant of Windows targeting fake. The variant is downloaded under the premise of being a security update.
The workflow of the scam implies introduction of the same trojan into any computer system. Smart Fortress 2012 is even more annoying as it tends to start its processes when user is requesting another program to run.

Another peculiarity of the program is its attempts to show fake firewall alert whenever user is trying to open web-browser or in the middle of web-surfing.
All those tricks are meant to persuade user into purchasing the self-announced automatic update, which is, in the actuality, a piece of adware that sets up a number of annoying restrictions.
