Remove fake "Security breach!" warning (Uninstall guide)

If you see a notification that pops up from the Windows taskbar and it's titled "Security breach!" then your computer is infected with XP Internet Security 2010 malware. Fake Security breach! alert reads:

"Security breach!
Beware! Spyware infection was found. Your system security is at risk. Private information may get stolen, and your PC activity may get modified. Click for an anti-spyware scan."

Here's how it looks like:


As you can see, it looks like a legitimate notification from the Windows taskbar. However, this one is fake and it's a part of XP Internet Security 2010 scam. The rogue program wants to make you think that your computer is infected with malicious software. Then it prompts you to pay for a so called "full" version of the program to remove the infections which don't actually exist. Most importantly, don’t purchase this bogus program! If you find that your computer is infected with this malware and you constantly see "Security breach!" notification on your computer screen, then please follow the XP Internet Security 2010 removal instructions to remove this virus from your computer for free using legitimate anti-malware programs. If you have any questions or additional information about this infection, don't hesitate and leave a comment. Good luck and be safe!
