How to Remove Palladium Pro Fake Utility

What is Palladium Pro?

Palladium Pro is a new fake disk enhancement program that infects your computer and tries to scare you into buying a subscription. It mimics Microsoft Security Essentials Alerts to make you think that your computer is infected and requires attention. If you accept this fake alert, your computer gets restarted and Palladium starts up upon your next restart. Once installed on your computer, it runs fake scans and pretends to find various hard disk errors and infections. If you accept to fix the alleged problems, you get redirected to a purchase page that sells this fake program. Below are easy to follow Palladium removal steps.

1. Hit the Ctrl+Alt+Del keys on your keyboard to bring up task manager. If you get an error saying 'warning, the application taskmgr.exe was launched successfully, but it was forced to shut down due to security reasons', follow steps 2 through 4 below, otherwise skip to step 5.
2. Click on the continue button to close down the warning message.
3. On Palladium Pro's console, click the Settings button.
4. Select the option 'Allow unprotected startup', then click on 'Save settings'. You should now be able to run task manager.
5. In task manager, go to the processes tab, look for the process called palladium.exe. Click on it to highlight it, then click the 'end process' button. You should now be able to run your antivirus program, but make sure not to shut down your computer until you have completed the scan and removed the infection, otherwise the infection will re-start when your computer restarts. Update your anti-virus program and run a full scan.
