Windows Antivirus 2012 has found critical process activity

Hi

We have window 2003R2 and IIS6 installed on our intranet server on out company's network.
From home when i type the company address directly into the web browser on my laptop it takes into the company website without any problems.

But if i google the company website and click the company website from google.I get a dialog box which says Message from web page.Windows Antivirus 2012 has found critical process activity on your PC and will perform fast scan of system files! If i cancel it opens a web page as shown below in the link. http://infectiondatadefender.pl/a9ssf/f6661e708d05...


But why this is happening only if i go through google. Is there any redirection happening from the google link to http://infectiondatadefender.pl/a9ssf/f6661e708d05...

We have Sophos antivirus installed on the server.

Thanks

If you hover over the google link and read the status bar I doubt you will see your websites address. This could be a spoof website. Just out of interest how do you access an INTRANET site from home? Are you using a VPN connection? By the way I think this topic belongs in the browser forums.

Windows Antivirus 2012 is NOT an real antivirus app


It is "ScumWare" that mimics a drive scan tells you have some "infections" then when you click "fix" you are taken to a website that will promptly steal your credit card details should you be dumb enough to put them in their "payment page".
