PC Question. Is RegCure legit? It's offered by PCPerformanceTools.com?

Question

I've had a screen constantly coming on that appears to be a legit windows alert, but by following the links to a free scan that says you have various problems, then you are led to a screen that asks for $39.00 to register and fix the problems. I have Norton and Adware, but these warnings keep popping up. The screen either says windows has found a serious error & has to shut down, or that you have serious problems and need to scan and find them.

RegCure is not legit; it is a rogue product that finds problems and then asks you to pay to fix them; Rogue Remover may be able to detect it and get rid of it

Try this online scanner. It will let you remove infections after the scan.

You can buy this one if you need additional protection.
