Remove DrProtection. Description and removal instructions

Title: DrProtection
Type: Malware	Severity scale: (70 / 100)

DrProtection is a rogue anti-spyware program released November 29, 2007. It is a clone of DrAntiSpy (a fact that is quite obvious after seeing the homepage). This program masquerades as a magnificent anti-spyware tool, when in fact all it does is intimidate users into buying the full version by falsifying scan results.

Do not download or buy DrProtection and block its domain using your HOSTS file.
