Ethics

It is very unethical for someone to cheat other people, for example (one that is common during these times), a fake security engine. This fake security engine disguises as an anti-virus program, it pops up when you open
some sites (forums, info, etc.). It will say that your computer is infected with virus and you will to choose if you were to delete this virus or not. If you chose to delete the virus, this program installs itself and cannot be deleted easily, it can only be deleted when you have an already-installed anti- malware program. With this fake security engine installed in your computer, it corrupts the anti-virus(avira, norton, etc.) program that is alredy installed in your computer, it restricts you to go to sites which  is related to "anti-malware, anti-virus,etc. ". The main purpose of this program is to earn money by cheating; if you no other choice, and you really want this program to be uninstalled to your computer, they will ask you to pay them, good if you already have an anti-malware program installed already in your computer. Earning money nowadays is very important, but to earn it by cheating or by disturbing others is not right, it is unethical!!
