Title: Why you should not install searchanddestroy or virus fighter!
Post by: polonus on June 24, 2009, 11:30:24 PM

Hi malware fighters,

Through manipulated google search results but also from their own sites Fake AV or Rogue Anti-Spyware programs can cause a lot of misery both to your computer and sometimes also to your wallet if you wanna through money after a program that does nothing at best or infect your computer even further.
Read about these fake anti-spyware programs here: http://www.spyware-techie.com/
Also good read for knowing how to uninstall if you have fallen victim to one of these unwanted programs,
