Charley0,

This is listed in the Rogue/Suspect Anti-Spyware Products & Web Sites guide. There are hundreds of these programs. Always check there first, even easier only use the three I recommend on my Secure XP Guide (link to the Rogue Guide is also there):

Adaware
Spybot
Microsoft AntiSpyware

I have used AdAware & Spybot for many years and have used MAS since getting this new computer 4 months ago. But, thanks for the post.    :)

I mainly posted the above for those who aren't yet aware of such scams.    :)
