Many Windows users take additional security measures after being notified by their antivirus program of the presence of antivirus software (Win32: BogEnt) that has been removed from their computer or transferred to the quarantine directory. Virus scanning is only reported with third-party antivirus software (AVG and McAfee are the most reported). The problem is not exclusive to a particular version of Windows as it happened in Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
