Please read the following information !
Multiple Antivirus Programs:
I do not recommend that you have more than one anti-virus product installed and running on your computer at a time.
The reason for this is that if both products have their automatic (Real-Time) protection switched on, then those products which do not encrypt the virus strings within them can cause other anti-virus products to cause "false alarms". It can also lead to a clash as both products fight for access to files which are opened again this is the resident/automatic protection. In general terms, the two programs may conflict and cause:
1) False Alarms: When the anti virus software tells you that your PC has a virus when it actually doesn't.
2) System Performance Problems: Your system may lock up due to both products attempting to access the same file at the same time.
Crack and keygen !
This is the main reason your computer is infected. Visiting cracksites/warezsites - and other questionable/illegal sites is always a risk.
Even a single click on the site can drop multiple forms of very serious malware, many of which disable your onboard protection, and System Restore.
If you install the cracked software, you are running executable files from these dubious, unknown sources. You are in effect giving these sources access to information on your hard disk, and potential control over the operation of your computer.
Additionally, cracked programs are illegal. Before posting for help, we ask that you uninstall any such applications, as indicated in this sticky topic.
Referring to the Forum Rules which you should have read at the time of Registering at this forum, BC does not support illegal activity. As such, be advised that any request for assistance in removing malware may go unanswered, or may be discontinued, if the cracked (illegal) software is still present on the machine.
In 2006, a study revealed that 59% of keygens and crack tools downloaded from peer-to-peer networks contained malicious or "unwanted" software.
Toolbars,add,pop up,Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs),Adware:

In many cases these issues are the result of unwanted toolbars, add-ons/plug-ins, and browser extensions which come bundled with other free software you download. They can often be the source of various issues and problems to include Adware, pop-up ads browser hijacking which may change your home page and search engine, and user profile corruption. As such many of them are classified as Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs).
Some toolbars and Add-ons can be removed from within its program group Uninstall shortcut in Start Menu > All Programs or by using Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features in Control Panel, so always check there first. In your case look for anything related to ViewPassword.
Alternatively, you can use a third-party utility like Revo Uninstaller Free or Portable and follow these instructions for using it. Revo will do a more thorough job of searching for and removing related registry entries, files and folders.
Note: Some programs can be difficult to remove if their services and running processes are not disabled or turned off prior to attempting removal because they are in use. As such, it is easier to uninstall after booting into safe mode so there are less processes which can interfere with uninstalling the program.
3rd party Software İnforming:
To protect these types of Ad-wares you have to be careful on some points.
[/ul]Before I conclude I would like to say a few things. Please create a system restore point first before you install any new software. Pay attention during the installation process. Don’t trust the word ‘Free’. Don’t just click on Next, Next, Next. Even the official installer of a legitimate software like Java includes third-party offers! Opt out where you can, if you cant, simply exit the installation process. So you have to be aware during the installation process!
İt is important that you pay attention to the license agreements and installation screens when installing anything. ‘Think before you click on any Download link blindly’!
IObit software products are installed on your system!
The company behind this product was found to be stealing our database. Personally I would not trust installing any software from a company that resorts to stealing someone's technology to sell their product.
Please see the following links and make up your own mind if you want to keep this on your system. If needed I can help you remove it.
i.e. McAfee SiteAdvisor, WOT:

Many site rating vendors (i.e. McAfee SiteAdvisor, WOT) use a system of volunteer testers that continually patrol the Internet to browse sites, download files, and enter information on sign-up forms. All the results are documented and supplemented with feedback from users, Web site owners, and analysis from their own employees. The advising site vendor then summarizes the results sometimes into a color-coded red, yellow and green ratings scale to help inform Web users as to the safety of each tested site. While these tools are useful, they are not foolproof and sometimes may provide misleading ratings. Just because you visit a risky site does not automatically mean the site is bad or that your system has been infected by going there. Thus, the use of such rating sites does not always guarantee an accurate rating of the results they provide. Even Bleeping Computer has been incorrectly rated from time to time....see this discussion topic.

- You should not keep ticked any unwanted check mark which are prompts while installing any software.
- You should read the all agreement which is prompts while installing any software.
- You should not open any executive file which is comes by e-mail if you really don’t know their publisher.
