Yes, there are some "antiviruses" that are actually just viruses themselves, they are called rouge programs. They trick you into thinking the program is safe to download and received lots of good reviews, and if you download and open it then you're screwed. They pretend to be a good program and find lots of "viruses" but they just end up making you want to tear out your hair in anger. An example of a rouge antivirus is Navashield.

Fortunately, many antivirus programs today are better at detecting these viruses than they once were, and so they are easier to remove.
