What this programs does:

PcsProtector is a rogue anti-spyware program that is promoted and installed through the use of Trojans that pretend to be programs necessary to view certain online videos. When you download and install this Trojan it will install the rogue and configure it to start automatically when your computer starts. This same Trojan will also create fake malware files on your computer with random filenames that are then detected as viruses when PcsProtector scans your computer. The program, though, will state that it will not remove these files until you first purchase it. This is obviously a scam as the program is only detecting the files it created in the first place. In reality, these files are harmless and do not pose any risk to your computer. Thus this programs scan results should be ignored.
