Privacy Components also known as Privacy Tools Pack is a brand new fake spyware remover tool that wants to trick users into buying of its dangerous commercial version. Program pretends to be genuine application as many as other rogue anti-spyware applications and long time usage of it could be precarious. PrivacyComponents makes its own way to computer via website or blind spots of security system. Parasite wants to take unsuspected victims into thinking that they are infected with viruses and of course offers to download it, then initiates imaginary scan that has imaginary results. After scan program claims that could do actions associated with problem fixing only after payment. For your own serenity we recommend you not to pay for this “infections” removal because some files posted in scan report of Privacy Components could be Windows system files or some of your own. We recommend you to scan your machine with reliable spyware removal application periodically to avoid all problems that PrivacyComponents can bring.

These are great instructions, except the fake software loads, both in safe mode and on a regular boot before the Windows desktop, so there is no way to kill processes or edit the registry. Is there a way around the software?
