How To Remove PC Mighty Max

PC MightyMax removal guide and general info on this virus. PC MightyMax is more or less a fake tool.  While this program is more of an annoyance then anything else it is a clear sign that you may of been infected with other trojans and viruses and you should run a full scan using whatever your favorite security client is.  If you do not have one then download a free trial of SpyHunter. PC MightyMaxwill auto start and run a scan when your PC boots.  Every few hours it will display an alert from the system tray saying “Critical Alert”.  The software will constantly bug you to purchase the full version of software which seems to do nothing at all as far as your computer goes.  If you are infected with this then you should remove it ASAP.  While we do not see this as a direct threat on your computer at this time it is a bogus and junk software package and as stated above a good indication that you may have other trojans on your computer.

PC MightyMax sumary:

• Bogus Scan results
