Title: AntiSpyware Protector	Also known as: AntiSpywareProtector
Type: Spyware	Severity scale: (68 / 100)

AntiSpyware Protector is another application that was designed to damage computers and scare users in order to steal money from them. It is advertised as spyware remover, but actually it's a rogue anti-spyware program which infiltrates into user's PC without his approval or knowledge. As many other fake spyware removers, AntiSpywareProtector shows pop-up windows and alerts with misleading information about system infections and privacy issues. However, this parasite also uses more aggressive scaring tactics. If user waits too long and hesitates to remove this rogue he unknowingly puts important files at risk. In worst situation AntiSpyware Protector can even crash operating system.
It's not a great idea to purchase a license of this parasite, because it won't remove those problems as it claims after fake scan. In this case AntiSpyware Protector is an infection itself and must be removed without any further consideration.
