It gives fake warnings about spyware on the system and tries to scare the user into buying the “full version”. If you have installed it on your computer, uninstall it and install a suitable antivirus like Avira or Norton or Spyware Terminator.

Rogue Antispyware often spread through malicious websites, and trojans exploiting vulnerabilities in the user’s system. They are often aggressively marketed through banner advertisements and email campaigns.

Here are some examples of banners/popups displayed by rogue antispyware to scare the user’s into downloading or buying the full version:

An example of a WinFixer pop-up dialog box within Opera. Even if the Cancel or X dialogs were clicked to dismiss the box, it would redirect to a WinAntiVirus page anyway, featuring a simulated system scan.

Fake security warning prompting the user to buy the full version.

False registry errors/infections
