PSGuard is a rogue anti-spyware program, typically installed using Trojans. When active, this program uses pop-ups, system notifications and falsified scan reports to scare the user into buying the full version, which is equally non-functional.

PSGuard is a scam: do NOT download or buy it, if you have it - remove it and block its domain using your HOSTS file.
